Chocolate Chip Molten Cake

I love chocolate chip cookies and I love molten cake. This combines those two treats. Put ice-cream on top and it is pretty delicious. It is rich enough that one helping is enough for me.

1 cup (2 sticks) butter, softened

3/4 cup granulated sugar

3/4 cup packed light brown sugar

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

2 eggs

1 cup whole wheat flour

1 1/4 cup all-purpose flour

1 teaspoon baking soda

1/2 teaspoon salt

2 cups dark chocolate chips (or whatever kind of chocolate chip you prefer)

1 cup chopped almonds

1 King size chocolate bar (your favorite kind)

1. Heat oven to 375.


2. Beat butter, sugars and vanilla in a large bowl. Add eggs; beat well. Stir together flour, baking soda and salt; gradually add to butter mixture, beating until well blended. Stir in chips and nuts.


3. Fill custard-cups half-way full with dough. Put two pieces of chocolate on top of each dough cup. Cover the chocolate with more dough (the custard cup should be about 3/4 full after you cover the chocolate). There should be enough dough to make 8 custard cups. Make how many cups you want. You can use the rest of the dough to make cookies.


4. Bake 13-15 minutes depending on how gooey you like it.


5. Let the cups cool for 1 minutes. Then run a butter knife around the inside and invert custard cups. Serve with ice-cream on top.


6. The dough also makes yummy chocolate chip cookies. Just drop by teaspoons onto ungreased cookie sheet and cook 8-10 minutes. My boys love these cookies. The whole wheat gives it a great flavor.
