Instructions
- Line and grease four dariole moulds or ramekins.
- Preheat the oven to 200˚C (400˚F / 180°C Fan).
- Break the chocolate up into little pieces in a large microwaveable bowl and place in the microwave oven at 80% power in bursts of 30-60 seconds until melted. My microwave oven has a power of 1000w and I melt dark chocolate at 80% power and white chocolate at 50% with absolutely no problems. Stir and leave to cool slightly while you get everything else together.150 g 70% dark chocolate
- Cream the butter and sugar until pale, you won't have a fluid mix, it'll be pretty dry at this stage.30 g butter, 70 g sugar
- Add the eggs one at a time, beating for 30 seconds between each.2 large eggs
- Add the vanilla and stir with a wooden spoon.½ tsp vanilla paste/extract
- Fold in the flour with the wooden spoon until just combined.25 g plain flour
- Add this egg/butter mix to the melted chocolate and fold everything together. As the chocolate reacts to the liquid mix, it will thicken up considerably.
- Half fill the moulds with the batter.
- Take 1 Tbsp of your salted caramel and form into a flat-ish disc and place on top of the batter in the moulds.4 Tbsp salted caramel straight from the fridge
- Top with the rest of the batter and bake for 8 minutes for just a touch of crust on the outside.
