Ingredients
- 115 grams Unsalted butter
- 175 grams Semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 150 grams Granulated sugar
- 2 units Large eggs
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 50 grams All-purpose flour
- 15 grams Unsweetened cocoa powder
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 10 grams Powdered sugar (optional, for dusting)
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F) and generously grease a 6-cup muffin tin or line it with paper cupcake liners.
Step 2
In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the unsalted butter and semi-sweet chocolate chips in the microwave in 20-second increments, stirring well after each interval, until smooth. Let it cool for 1-2 minutes.
Step 3
Once slightly cooled, whisk in the granulated sugar until fully combined.
Step 4
Add the eggs, one at a time, whisking well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
Step 5
In a separate bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour, unsweetened cocoa powder, and salt.
Step 6
Gently fold the dry ingredients into the chocolate mixture until just combined. Avoid overmixing.
Step 7
Divide the batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about 3/4 full.
Step 8
Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the tops are set and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs (do not overbake for a fudgy texture).
Step 9
Remove the tin from the oven and let the cakes cool in the pan for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Step 10
Dust the tops with powdered sugar before serving, if desired. Enjoy your fudgy mini chocolate cakes!
