I zapped the butter & chocolate in a heatproof bowl in the microwave on high for 25 secs

When the butter had melted, I took out the bowl and stirred (you might need 10secs more depending on the wattage of your microwave)

Once the chocolate had reached a molten consistency I set aside,

Add the flour, cocoa powder and whisk to combine

It will be a runny batter like so,

I greased four stand alone silicone moulds, you can use dariole moulds, muffins tins etc. I had just enough for 4 fondants.

Place in the preheated oven, I baked mine for 10 mins maximum! Remember Oozy is the goal!
