CHOCOLATE VOLCANOES WITH RASPBERRY COULIS

Steps:

• Volcano: Dissolve coffee granules in boiling water& set aside to cool.
• Grease 6, 4-oz (125 ml) ramekins.
• Using a whisk, combine flour, cocoa and baking powder in a small bowl, set aside.
• Melt chocolate in a double boiler, add butter& sugar and stir until smooth; transfer to a large bowl.
• Using an electric mixer, beat in eggs 1 at a time on medium speed, add dissolved coffee& flour mixture and continue beating until fully mixed; raise mixer speed to high and beat for 6 more minutes.
• Pour batter into ramekins and tightly wrap with plastic wrap; freeze overnight or up to 2 weeks.
• Coulis: Combine raspberries& sugar in a blender and puree until smooth; strain through a sieve or cheesecloth to remove seeds.
• Add liqueur and store in refrigerator.
• Assembly: Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
• Take ramekins out of freezer, remove plastic wrap& bake volcanoes for 18 minutes – no longer!
• Cool on rack for 5 minutes- the outsides will be crusty and the centers will be gooey (sort of like your average volcano).
• To serve, drizzle individual plates with raspberry coulis; invert each ramekin onto a plate& add a small scoop of ice cream.
