Preparation Time: 2:15 1. Preheat oven to 350 F. Place 20 foil baking
cups on a baking sheet. Melt chocolate and butter in a double boiler
or in a medium heatproof bowl set over a pan of simmering water,
stirring until smooth and well blended. Let cool 10 mins. 2. Using an
electric mixer, beat eggs at medium speed until light and fluffy,
about 5 mins. Beat in sugar, amaretto, vanilla, and flour until well
blended. 3. Fold 1/3 of egg mixture into melted chocolate until well
blended, then fold in remaining egg mixture. Using a 1/3-cup measure,
fill cups 3/4's full. 4. Bake 15 min, or until tops are barely dry
and slightly cracked and centers look underdone. Let cool. Freeze at
least 2 hrs or refrigerate to set. Store frozen and thaw 1 hr before
serving.
Serving notes: Dust with powdered sugar and serve like cupcakes. Or
remove foil, invert on serving plate, and top with a dab of whipped
cream or an Amaretto Sauce.
