Chocolate Volcanoes With Raspberry Coulis

Chocolate Volcanoes With Raspberry Coulis


1. Volcano: Dissolve coffee granules in boiling water& set aside to cool.

2. Grease 6, 4-oz (125 ml) ramekins.

3. Using a whisk, combine flour, cocoa and baking powder in a small bowl, set aside.

4. Melt chocolate in a double boiler, add butter& sugar and stir until smooth; transfer to a large bowl.

5. Using an electric mixer, beat in eggs 1 at a time on medium speed, add dissolved coffee& flour mixture and continue beating until fully mixed; raise mixer speed to high and beat for 6 more minutes.

6. Pour batter into ramekins and tightly wrap with plastic wrap; freeze overnight or up to 2 weeks.

7. Coulis: Combine raspberries& sugar in a blender and puree until smooth; strain through a sieve or cheesecloth to remove seeds.

8. Add liqueur and store in refrigerator.

9. Assembly: Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.

10. Take ramekins out of freezer, remove plastic wrap& bake volcanoes for 18 minutes – no longer!

11. Cool on rack for 5 minutes- the outsides will be crusty and the centers will be gooey (sort of like your average volcano).

12. To serve, drizzle individual plates with raspberry coulis; invert each ramekin onto a plate& add a small scoop of ice cream.
