Well, my sweet friend, Dena wrote today to ask me to blog this recipe. It is so awesome baked in little heart shaped ramekins. So bake some up for your sweetie and top them with cinnamon ice cream or BlueBell Homemade vanilla…..what a dessert!
4 oz semi-sweet baking chocolate
1/2 cup butter
1 table red wine (opt)
1 teas vanilla (I add two when I don’t use the wine)
1 cup powdered sugar
2 eggs plus 1 egg yolk
6 tables flour
1/4 tsp cinnamon
powdered sugar for top
Grease 4 custard cups or ramekins. Microwave chocolate and butter. Stir in wine and vanilla (or just vanilla) and sugar. Whisk in eggs and yold. Stir in remaining ingredients. Spoon evenly into cups. Bake at 425 for 15 min or until sides are firm but centers are soft.
Loosen edges and invert onto serving plate. Top with a chocolate dipped strawberry to make it really pretty.
