How to Make Chocolatey Flourless Delights

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Ensure all ingredients are at room temperature.
  3. Grease and flour a 6-cup muffin tin or similar molds.
  4. In a heatproof bowl set over a pan of simmering water (double boiler), melt 6 ounces (170g) of bittersweet chocolate and 4 tablespoons (57g) of unsalted butter until smooth and combined. Stir occasionally to prevent scorching.
  5. Remove from heat and whisk in 2 tablespoons (10g) unsweetened cocoa powder until completely smooth.
  6. In a separate clean bowl, using a hand mixer or whisk, beat 3 large egg whites with 1/4 teaspoon cream of tartar until soft peaks form.
  7. Gradually add 1/2 cup (100g) granulated sugar, increasing the mixer speed to high, until stiff, glossy peaks form.
  8. Gently fold one-quarter of the egg whites into the chocolate mixture to lighten it. Then, carefully fold in the remaining egg whites in two additions, being careful not to deflate the mixture.
  9. Divide the batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about 3/4 full.
  10. Bake for 7-8 minutes, or until the edges are set but the centers are still slightly soft and cracked on top.
  11. Let cool in the muffin tin for 2 minutes before inverting onto a wire rack to cool completely.
  12. Serve warm or at room temperature, topped with a dollop of whipped cream.
  13. These delightful cakes can be made a few days in advance. Store the filled molds in the refrigerator. Add approximately 2 minutes to the baking time if baking from chilled.
