The big stuff…
How much I love and appreciate my family and friends.
The realization of how much I could be affecting my client’s lives.
The realization of how much my clients are affecting my life.
Trying to figure out what I REALLY want to do with my life.
My attempt at trying to find a level of compassion and understanding with each person I meet
The small stuff…
I really want to cut my hair.
I really don’t want to clean the house.
I wonder what I should make for dinner?
Could I blog about what I decide to make for dinner?
We should just go out to eat.
The big and small stuff…
These mini tortes.
Big big flavor hidden in a small little package.
They are so rich and fudgy that one is definitely plenty to satisfy a sweet craving without packing on tons of calories!
- 12 oz semi sweet chocolate
- 6 tbsp unsalted butter
- ¼ tsp kosher salt
- 3 tbsp arrowroot powder (or cornstarch)
- 4 eggs
- raspberries (optional)
- 4 ounces semi-sweet or bittersweet chocolate
- ¼ cup milk (I used almond milk because that is what I had)
- pinch of salt
- Preheat oven to 325.
- Grease a mini muffin pan and set aside.
- In a medium glass bowl melt chocolate and butter over a double boiler stirring frequently until smooth. Set aside to cool slightly.
- Crack eggs into the bowl of a stand mixer and beat on high until pale yellow and frothy. About 3-4 minutes.
- Stir in the salt and arrowroot powder into the melted chocolate until well combined.
- Pour ⅓ of the egg mixture into the chocolate and stir gently until combined. Continue 2 more times until all of the egg is combined.
- Fill the muffin tins half full with the chocolate mixture.
- Bake at 325 for 7-10 minutes. Mine were perfect at 9 minutes.
- Allow to cool and top with ganache and a raspberry.
- Melt chocolate in a glass bowl over a double boiler.
- Stir in milk and a pinch of salt.
- Set aside to cool slightly.
WOW! This looks delicious!
We are having friends over Friday and I think I will make these. Yum!
They will love them. I just threw them together as an experiment and took them to work and I got several compliments that people thought it was one of the best things they had eaten in a while. I love surprises like that!
These look amazing, as does your blog in general!
Please excuse me while I go hate my diet for a little while.

These look incredible! Weighing out the big stuff and the small stuff always is better with chocolate!
Yum!! You have the best recipes. Thanks for sharing!!
Love how you wrote about ‘the small stuff’. Yes, love to have you share with us about what’s for dinner.
These choc tortes look absolutely delectable. Love to try the recipe one of these days.
Reblogged this on What's For Dinner?.
Those look amazing I think I might just have to try more than one. They are bite sized after all. Take Care, BAM
Reblogged this on randomly organized.
I LOVE these! So cute and adorable!
I LOVE LITTLE FOOD! Adorable.
And I want a hair cut, too.
Ah!! How cute are these little guys!!? Love em!
Those are SO cute… absolutely fantastic! I want…. badly.
the coffee shot looks great. I don’t want to clean my house, either.
These are soooo unfair…….
Ooh..these look yummy. I’ll definitely try making these!
Every day I praise the “small stuff” in my life.. because it means my life is just perfect the way it is. I worry about the “big stuff” that pops up every now and then. What pretty little cakes.. it’s hard to believe they’re flourless! xx
Yum!! These pictures are beautiful and make me want to have tea time
Can these be made ahead and frozen?
They looked good when they came out, but were very egg-y. Maybe replace some of the egg with baking powder, or only use egg yolks?
Can these be frozen after baking without the ganache?
I haven’t tried it Jeanne, but I don’t see why not!
Thanks. I’ll let you know how I make out. This is my husband’s favorite dessert but I can’t be trusted with
all of them beckoning me from the fridge.
This looks amaazing!
