Ingredients
Scale
- 10 tablespoons butter
- 8 teaspoons sugar
- 10 ounces chocolate chips
- 4 eggs
- 1 egg yolk
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 3 tablespoons flour
- 1 cup mini marshmallows
- 1 tablespoon sweetened cocoa powder (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375. Use 2 tablespoons of butter to grease 8 six ounce mugs. Put a teaspoon of sugar into each mug and shake it around until the sugar sticks to the butter.
- Put the 8 remaining tablespoons of butter and the chocolate chips into a double boiler or a bowl over simmering water until the chocolate is melted, stirring every now and then. Set the bowl aside to cool while you do the next step.
- Use a mixer to beat eggs, yolk, vanilla and 1/2 cup sugar until everything is well combined.
- Stir the 3 tablespoons of flour into the melted chocolate. Now slowly add the chocolate mixture to the to the egg mixture, beating on low until everything is fully combined.
- Spoon the hot chocolate batter into each cup until it is almost but not quite full. Put the mugs on a rimmed baking pan and bake for 15 minutes – the cake will be a little puffy.
- Now for the best part! Remove the tray from the oven and cover each cake with marshmallows. Put the tray back in the oven until the marshmallows start to turn golden, 2 to 3 minutes or so.
- Shake a little cocoa powder on top, cool for a few minutes and serve them up!
