This hot desert look delicious.. when you break the the fondant, the hot chocolate will flows out.. Yummy... Saw Gordon Ramsay make hot chocolate fondant on "the F Word"... i want to give this recipe a try..

Hot Chocolate Fondant

Serves 2
50g unsalted butter, plus extra to grease
2tbsp coca powder, to dust
50g good-quality bitter chocolate (minimum 70% cocoa in pieces)
1 free-range egg
1 free-range egg yolk
60g caster sugar
50g plain flour

Heat the oven to 160DegC/Gas3. Butter two large ramekins, about 7.5cm in diameter, then dust liberally with cocoa.

Slowly melt the chocolate and butter in a small bowl set over a pan of hot water, then take off the heat and stir until smooth. Leave to cool for 10 mins.

Using an electric whisk, whisk the whole egg, egg yolk and sugar together until pale and thick, then incorporate the chocolate mixture.

Shift the flour over the mixture and gently fold in, using a large metal spoon. Divide between the ramekins and bake for 12mins.

Turn the chocolate fondants out on to warmed plate and serve immediately.
