Someone’s in the Kitchen with Dinah This gooey-center, intense chocolate dessert is a favorite for everyone during the holidays.

  Molten Chocolate Lava Cakes Ingredients * 2 Tbsp. butter * 8 oz. bittersweet chocolate, coarsely chopped * 3/4 cup butter * 3 eggs * 3 egg yolks * 1/3 cup granulated sugar * 1 tsp. vanilla * 1 Tbsp. all-purpose flour * Powdered sugar * Fresh raspberries * Fresh mint leaves Directions 1. Using the 2 tablespoons butter, grease six 8- to 10-ounce ramekins, soufflé dishes or custard cups. Place ramekins in a 15x10x1-inch baking pan; set aside. 2. In a heavy small saucepan, combine chocolate and the 3/4 cup butter. Cook and stir over low heat until chocolate melts. Remove pan from heat; set aside. 3. In a large mixing bowl, beat eggs, egg yolks, granulated sugar and vanilla with an electric mixer on high speed for 8 to 10 minutes or until thick and lemon colored. Fold one-third of the chocolate mixture into egg mixture. Fold remaining chocolate mixture and flour into egg mixture. Spoon about 2/3 cup batter into each prepared ramekin, dividing evenly. 4. Bake in a 425 degree F oven about 12 minutes or until cake edges feel firm. Cool in ramekins on a wire rack for 2 to 3 minutes. Using a knife, loosen cake from sides of ramekins. Invert onto dessert plates. Sift with powdered sugar and serve with fresh raspberries and mint leaves. Serve immediately. Makes 6 servings.
