Preparing Little Chocolate Cakes
Preheat oven to 200°C.
Roughly chop the chocolate and, together with the butter, melt it in a metal bowl above a water bath while stirring constantly. Then put it aside.
Beat eggs, sugar, cinnamon, salt and the scraped vanilla bean in a bowl to a mixture with light-coloured foam. Then fold this into the chocolate butter and carefully mix in the flour. Butter and flour little cake pans or coffee cups so that just a little flour sticks to them.
Fill the chocolate dough into the little cake pans or cups. After filling you may leave them at room temperature for a good 60 minutes before baking.
Bake exactly for 10 minutes in a fan oven.
