Chocolate Melting Moments
Dear Aunt Daisy, I wonder if you could oblige me with a recipe for chocolate melting moments (very dark)? Perhaps another reader may know of one.-C.B. (Auckland). Here is a good one. Melt an ounce block of dark chocolate in a double saucepan, or an enamelled mug standing in hot water. Grease two dozen small patty pans, Cream six ounces of butter and three ounces of castor sugar. Mix the melted chocolate thoroughly with this. Beat two eggs and add them to the creamed mixture, alternately with eight ounces of cornflour. Lastly, stir in 1 teaspoon of baking powder. Put as teaspoon of the mixture in each of the patty tins, and bake in a hot oven for about eight to ten minutes, Stick them together with mock cream. Instead of using all cornflour, you may use half or quarter of ordinary flour, When using all cornflour, the cakes are liable to be almost too "short." Still, the above recipe is a tested one, given me in London.
