Molten Chocolate Cake And Candied Walnuts
- 6 oz. semi sweet chocolate
- 2 oz. bittersweet chocolate
- 3/4 C. unsalted butter
- 3 egg yokes
- 3 whole eggs
- 3/4 C. sugar
- 3/4 C. all purpose flour
- 3 C. walnuts, toasted
- 1 3/4 C. sugar

- Butter 8 six oz. ceramic ramekins and dust with flour. In a bowl over a double boiler, melt butter and chocolate, set aside and let cool. In a mixing bowl, use electric mixer to combine eggs and sugar until pale yellow batter holds shape and forms ribbon on beaters. Blend flour into egg-sugar mixture with the mixer for 3 minutes. Add chocolate mixture, being careful to incorporate everything; mix for 2 more minutes. Pour about 6 ounces of batter into each ramekin and refrigerate for 1 hour. In preheated 475F oven, bake ramekins on a cookie sheet for 10-12 minutes, or until they are puffed up and don't jiggle when moved. Remove from oven and serve immediately. Can be served with chocolate sauce or whipped cream.
- Cook sugar unit melted and slightly amber colored. Mix walnuts, sugar and salt together. Being sure to coat the nuts and let cool on a non-stick surface such as parchment paper.
