Today is my last take. I finished baking all the cakes from 2010 cookbook of the year (IACP): Rose’s Heavenly Cakes. hector’s take on ROSE’S heavenly CAKES: Molten Chocolate Souffle and Lava Cakes (page 359):

ROSE’S heavenly CAKES:  Molten Chocolate Souffle and Lava Cakes (page 359): 1- the ganache plugs, shaped: 2- silicone pans sprayed with baker’s joy: 3- fresh from the oven:

ROSE’S heavenly CAKES:  Molten Chocolate Souffle and Lava Cakes (page 359), is a clever flourless chocolate cake stuffed with a ganache ball.  when heated, the ganache melts! the book recommends using an empty egg carton lined with plastic, so create the little ganache balls.  instead, i piped it (sorry, looks a little funny!)
