Preparation

Step 1

To make centers
Melt 2 ounces of chocolate (1/2 a baking bar) and cream in the top of a double boiler. Whisk gently to blend. Refrigerate about 2 hours or until firm. Form into 6 balls; refrigerate until needed.


To make cake
1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Spray six 4-ounce ramekins or custard cups with cooking spray.

2. Melt remaining 4 ounces of chocolate (1 baking bar) and butter in double boiler; whisk gently to blend.

3. With an electric mixer, whisk eggs, yolks, sugar, and vanilla on high speed about 5 minutes or until thick and light.

4. Fold melted chocolate mixture and flour into egg mixture just until combined. Spoon cake batter into ramekins. Place a chocolate ball in the middle of each ramekin.

5. Bake about 15 minutes or until cake is firm to the touch.
Let it sit out of the oven for about 5 minutes.

6. Run a small, sharp knife around inside of each ramekin,
place a plate on top, invert and remove ramekin. Garnish
with raspberries and a dollop of whipped cream.
