  1. Title: Mini Chocolate Cakes with White Chocolate Lava
    Categories: Cheesecakes, Chocolate
    Yield: 1 servings

    INGREDIENTS:
    1 c Unsalted butter; softened
    1/2 c Sugar
    3 Eggs
    3 Egg yolks
    1 lb Bittersweet chocolate;
    -melted
    1 c Flour
    1 c Toasted ground pecans
    1 ts Pure vanilla extract
    6 oz White chocolate
    = in 1-oz pieces
    3/4 c Heavy cream; whipped
    2 oz Bittersweet chocolate;
    -grated

    DIRECTIONS:
    Preheat oven to 350. Using an electric mixer with a whisk
    attachment, cream butter and sugar together on high speed
    until light and fluffy, about 5 minutes. Add eggs and egg
    yolks, one at a time, mixing well after each addition.
    Continue to mix until the egg mixture is lemon colored,
    about 3 minutes more. Lower the mixer speed and add the
    melted chocolate. Stop and scrape down the sides and then
    continue to mix. Add flour, nuts, and vanilla and mix just
    until the batter comes together.
    Distribute the batter among six 8-ounce well-greased
    ramekins. Place the ramekins on a baking sheet and bake for
    15 minutes. Remove from oven. Place a 1-ounce piece of
    white chocolate into the middle of each half-baked cake.
    Return cakes to oven and bake for another 10 to 15 minutes,
    or until a knife inserted in the side comes out clean. Do
    not insert the knife into the center or you will hit the
    white chocolate.
    Let cakes cool for about 10 minutes, then invert onto a
    plate and pipe whipped cream on the top of each cake. Top
    with grated chocolate and serve warm. Serves six.
