How to Make Warm Chocolate Melting Cups
- In a small saucepan, whisk together ¾ cup granulated sugar, ½ cup unsweetened cocoa powder, ¼ cup all-purpose flour, and ¼ teaspoon salt.
- Gradually whisk in 1 cup of water.
- Bring the mixture to a boil over medium heat.
- Reduce heat to low and cook, stirring constantly, for 2 minutes, or until the mixture has thickened to a pudding-like consistency.
- Remove from heat and stir in 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips, 1 teaspoon instant coffee granules (or 1 tablespoon strongly brewed coffee), and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract until the chocolate is completely melted and the mixture is smooth.
- Transfer the chocolate mixture to a large bowl.
- In a separate bowl, beat 2 large eggs and 1 large egg white with an electric mixer until the mixture is slightly thickened and pale yellow in color.
- Gradually add ¾ cup granulated sugar, continuing to beat until the mixture is thick, fluffy, and pale lemon-colored (about 5 minutes).
- Gently fold the egg mixture into the chocolate mixture until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Lightly grease 10 ramekins with cooking spray.
- Divide the batter evenly among the prepared ramekins.
- Place the ramekins in a baking pan.
- Carefully pour enough boiling water into the baking pan to come about 1 inch up the sides of the ramekins (this creates a bain-marie, ensuring even cooking).
- Bake in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for 20-25 minutes, or until the centers are just set. The edges will be firm, but the center should still be slightly soft and molten.
- Let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy immediately for the best molten chocolate experience!
