Ingredients
- 400 g of dark chocolate
 - 1⁄2 cup of thick cream
 - 170 g of butter
 - 6 large eggs
 - 1/2 cup of light brown sugar
 - 1 teaspoon vanilla essence
 - 2 tbsp Grand Marnier or other liqueur (optional)
 - 60 g of Blédor flour Multi-Usages
 - Brown sugar to put in pans
 - Strawberries (optional)

Preparation
- Start by making the ganache, which we will. Place 115g of chocolate in a bowl. Boil the cream and pour it over the chocolate. Mix until you get a smooth ganache and let cool in the refrigerator
 - Once the mixture is fully combined and smooth, place in the freezer for 1 hour or until frozen.
 - Melt the remaining dark chocolate and butter mixing until smooth consistency.
 - In another bowl, combine 6 large eggs and the light brown sugar. Bite the eggs until they are light and sparkling, then add 1 teaspoon vanilla essence and 2 tablespoons Grand Marnier or other liqueur.
 - Once blended, slowly add the chocolate mixture to the egg and sugar mixture, and beat to mix. Then incorporate the flour and stir to mix.
 - Grease a few ramekins or small moulds and coat the insides with raw sugar. This will help unmould the cakes. Fill each ramekin halfway.
 - Remove the chocolate ganache from the freezer and quickly place 1-2 tablespoons in the centre of ramekins, Fill the ramequins with the remaining cake batter.
 - Preheat the oven to 218 °C and cook for 11 minutes.
 - In the meantime, prepare strawberries and set aside.
 - Remove the cake ramequins from the oven and place them on a cooling rack. Run a knife around the edge of each cake to help release them from their pan.
 - Place a plate on top of the ramequin, flip it so that the ramequin is on top, and slowly lift to make sure the cake is intact.
 - Place on a plate with whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream, place the strawberries and sprinkle with a little icing sugar
