Flourless chocolate cakes

These are really quick to make and hit the spot for those who live a low sugar life. Now in this recipe I use glucose but you can use Stevia instead. Also look at the sugar levels on the back of the pack of chocolate it shouldn't be over 14g for a 100g pack. You only need 4 ingredients to make this!


Ingredients:

100g Lindt 85% dark chocolate
1/2 cup of glucose or 1 tsp stevia
3 eggs
60g organic unsalted butter

Directions: 

  1. Preheat the oven at 180 degrees Celsius 
  2. In a muffin tin place 9 cupcake cases into the 9 holes
  3. Separate the eggs so all the whites are in one bowl and the yolks in another 
  4. Over a pot of simmering water place a steel bowl and place inside it the dark chocolate and butter
  5. Whisk the egg whites until they are stiff peaks
  6. Once the chocolate and butter has melted add the glucose and yolks and mix very quickly as the chocolate will start to harden
  7. Add a scoop of the egg whites into the chocolate mixture and fold gently until all incorporated 
  8. Add the rest of the egg whites and fold until you get a lovely chocolatey mixture, be careful not to over fold the egg whites though as you want the air to stay in the mixture
  9. With a tablespoon place the mixture into the cupcake cases 
  10. Place in the oven and cook for 5 mins so it's gooey in the inside
  11. Once done place on cooling rack or eat straight away
