So I tried this when Elena, Venus and Xiang came over for supper the other day. Xiang brought a rather fab rice thing which I have not been able to get the recipe for (yet!) and Elena and Venus did a stir fry! I have no idea what this is supposed to be like but it came out nicely; it is quite moist inside and a little bit like bread and butter pudding or brownie. Well worth a try. From the Gü Chocolate cookbook.
Ingredients
Method
Stone the cherries and put to one side in a bowl with the cognac poured in.
Beat the eggs and the sugar together and then add the flour.
Get the cream on the heat and bring to the boil; now pour it over the chocolate (broken up) and stir together until it has melted.
Pour the chocolate mix into the egg mix and combine. Add the cherries.
The recipes said to pour into a big dish and cook for about 35-40 mins at 175, however I think it would be really nice to pop them in a number of small ramekin dishes as it is so gloopy so do that if you can. You'll need to cover it with silver paper about half way through to stop it burning. It is cooked when a knife comes out clean if you stab it. Serve with custard/cream.
