List of Ingredients




Cake Ingredients:

6 tablespoons LAND O LAKES® Butter*
1 cup real semi-sweet chocolate chips
2 teaspoons instant coffee granules
3 eggs
1/2 cup sugar
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
Topping Ingredients:

Powdered sugar
Whipped cream, if desired



Recipe



Instructions:

Heat oven to 400°F. Grease and lightly flour six (5 or 6-ounce) glass custard cups. Place onto ungreased baking sheet. Set aside.

Melt butter, chocolate chips and coffee granules in 1-quart saucepan over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until smooth (2 to 3 minutes). Set aside.

Beat eggs in small bowl at high speed until slightly thickened and lemon-colored. Continue beating, gradually adding sugar, until light and fluffy. Add melted chocolate, flour and vanilla. Reduce speed to low; beat just until mixed.

Pour batter evenly among prepared cups. Bake for 9 to 13 minutes or until top is puffy and crackled in appearance, but center is still soft. Cool 5 minutes; loosen cakes with knife.

Invert cakes onto individual serving plates. Sprinkle with powdered sugar. Serve warm with whipped cream, if desired.

*Substitute LAND O LAKES® Soft Baking Butter with Canola Oil.

TIP: Batter can be prepared several hours ahead. Bake just before serving. Cover and refrigerate if more than 1 hour. Allow to stand at room temperature at least 15 minutes to warm slightly before baking.

TIP: To easily sift powdered sugar, place sugar in small strainer. Gently tap strainer to allow the sugar to fall through openings onto cakes.

TIP: This dessert can also be served with ice cream.
