2 oz almond paste
1/4 c sugar
1/2 butter, soft
6 large eggs at room temperature
1/4 c almond flour or meal
1/4 tsp salt
12 oz bittersweet chocolate
1/3 c sugar
Melt chocolate and 1/3 c sugar together in a glass bowl, set over boiling water, stirring until smooth. Set aside to cool. In a food processor, combine almond paste and 1/4 c sugar; then butter; then eggs, one at a time; then almond flour and salt. Then add the melted and cooled chocolate and process until the batter is combined. Divide batter among 8 5-6 oz ramekins, buttered and sprinkled with sugar. Bake in a 350 oven for 40 to 45 minutes. Cool, then chill, and serve with whipped cream.
