Chocolate Molten Lava Cake

Gina: Now, go ahead and melt two sticks of butter and I’m going to need
a little bit help with this. Shel! She can get my chocolate for me,
keep, trying to move in because we’re going to make some
chocolate molten lava cakes.

Shelbi: Hey mom! What are you doing today?

Gina: Hi sweetie! I’m making some chocolate, some nice gooey, ooey
chocolate. You could get that chocolate at the fridge. I mean that
would be great. Just a pinch of cayenne, a little pinch of nutmeg
and a half of teaspoon of cinnamon and Shelbi, we’re just going to
pour it right in. That’s why I want to get my butter melting. This is
about 12 ounces of semisweet chocolate that I chopped earlier. See
that?

Shelbi: Yummylicious!

Gina: Just put that over there. Now, I’m going to leave you over here to
kind of attend to this because chocolate has a tendency to melt
really fast and get kind of hard, so we want to keep stirring it to
make sure they don’t get hard. I want to keep it low and I’m going
to get started on the batter for it.

Shelbi: All right.

Gina: So, we’re going to start with one cup of flour, two and a half cups
of confectioner sugar.

Shelbi: How is this looking Mom?

Gina: Looks like this is going to be yummy when it oozes out. But it
looks good. It’s supposed to be nice and smooth and creamy just
like that. Good job little chocolate girl.

Now, we’re going to add in six eggs. I missed my little hand
cracker, so I’ll have to do the work. Now, we have to do six egg
yolks and one and a half teaspoon of vanilla extract, and a half a
teaspoon of almond extract. I’m going to get it nice and creamy
and then Shelbi is going to bring over her chocolate. Still creamy
Shel?

Shelbi: Yup! It looks like liquor.

Gina: All right. I got my batter all nice and creamy so, I’m ready for the
chocolate. Not too hot is it? ?You okay?

Shelbi: Yes!

Gina: You got it? If I could just stick my tongue under there. Do not do
it.

Shelbi: It’d probably burn my mouth.

Gina: It would. Scrape it around.

Shelbi: My mama raised me right.

Gina: We do not want to ever waste chocolate. It’s a girl’s best friend.
So, this batter is nice and creamy. It’s ready for the ramekins. Go
ahead and give me the ladle and we’re going to fill out all the
ramekins up.

Look at this little cute shaped hearts. Well, we've already floured
and sugar them, so when we invert them, they’ll just slide right
out.

Now, you try. Fill that one up a little more.

Thank you, Shelbi. Now, open up the bottom of the oven for me.
So, we’re going to bake these at 400 degrees for 12 to 14 minutes,
so the cake does not bake off the way leaving the center oozy
gooey. That looks good. I can't wait.

Shelbi: That was it?

Gina: That’s it!

Shelbi, let’s check our dessert. Look at that! Look at that honey. I
got oozy. Here’s to the gooey ooey yummy yummy.
