How to Make Little Almond Cakes
- Preheat oven to 180°C (350°F).
- Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners.
- In a large bowl, beat 3 large eggs and 150g granulated sugar with an electric mixer until pale, thick, and creamy (about 5-7 minutes).
- Gently fold in 150g ground almonds, the zest of 1 lemon, and 50g all-purpose flour until just combined.
- Spoon the batter into the prepared muffin liners, filling each about ¾ full.
- Press one 15g square of your favorite chocolate (dark, milk, or white) into the center of each cake, ensuring it's fully submerged in batter.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let the cakes cool in the tin for 10 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Dust with powdered sugar before serving and enjoy!
