Petit Gateau

Hey Chocolate lovers.. Im cooking up the most famous chocolate lava cakes this winter ...again! yep! I made this last year ..now i am addicted. Seriously..i cant think of any other dessert except lava cakes! lol! So I thought I should share it with you guys..

WEll..ofcourse there are several versions of it. This is my version cause i make it with extra chocolate and i just love the chocolate oozing out when you cut the gateau open.

-Preheat oven to 180*c
-Whisk egg and sugar till it becomes a foamy texture
-melt the chocolate bar and butter using microwave or other traditional methods (just melt..do not over heat or cook)
-Add this melted chocolate mixture to the egg mixture and blend it in with the whisk.
- add the cocopowder, flour, vanilla essence and blend this well too
- add a pinch of salt n stir well
- Pour the batter into the cupcake rumkins and set it th fridge for 30 mins
- Bake for 12-15 mins in the oven.
- 12mins are up! ..take it out ..let it cool and then topple it over on to a serving platter.
