About this recipe

In a previous recipe, I told you about my niece Clara who lives in France, eastern side called 'Jura'. We both share a love for anything sweet and tasty, and I believe we are the only ones in the family. The rest just don't know what they are missing.

And a few years ago, Clara and I spent a whole evening baking together, and that was absolutely greaaaat fun. I stumbled on these photos when I taught Clara to bake those French brownies

And so, Clara is going to show you today how to bake Chocolate "Bouchons", French soft intense and wonderful brownie-like cakes, a recipe of Californian star Thomas Keller

"Bouchon" means cork in French. It also means a small traditional French restaurant in Lyon, the French capital of gastronomy, and that's why Keller called his restaurants "Bouchon"
