Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 1/3 cup butter (melted)
  • 3 Tablespoons cocoa powder
  • 2 eggs (slightly beaten)
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 3 Tablespoons flour
  • 1/2 Teaspoon vanilla
  • 1 cup chopped pecans (or the nut of your choice)
  • whipped cream for garnish

Instruction

  • Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Butter 4 eight ounce ramekins.
  • Place the melted butter and cocoa in a medium size bowl. Whisk to thoroughly combine. Whisk in the eggs,sugar,flour and vanilla. Stir in the pecans.
  • Line a baking pan big enough to hold the ramekins with a cloth towel. Place the ramekins on top of the towel. (The towel helps the ramekins to stay in place when you add the boiling water to the pan.)
  • Place boiled water ( don't use hot tap water, boil the water ) into the pan so it comes half way up the ramekins. Place the baking pan in the oven, bake for 45 minutes or until the pots have a crusted top and are soft in the middle. Remove from the oven, serve warm or cold with whipped cream or ice cream for a fudgy chocolate treat.
