Molten Chocolate Cakes Recipe
Preheat oven to 400F degrees. Generously spray with nonstick spray 6 cups in standard muffin tin. Dust with granulated sugar and tap out excess. Set aside.
With electric mixer, beat butter and granulated sugar until fluffy. Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. With mixer on low speed, beat in flour and salt just until combined. Beat in chocolate - do not overmix. Divide batter evenly among prepared muffin tins.
Place muffin tin on baking sheet. Bake just until tops of cakes no longer jiggle when pan is lightly shaken, 12 to 14 minutes. Remove fromoven and let stand for 10 minutes.
To serve, turn out cakes and place on serving plates. Dust with confectioners' sugar and serve with whipped cream, if desired.
