Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 425°F (218°C) and prepare your skull cake pan by greasing with unsalted butter and dusting with flour.
- In a heatproof bowl, melt unsalted butter and semisweet chocolate together until smooth.
- In a separate bowl, whisk eggs and sugar until pale and thick, about 3-4 minutes, then add vanilla extract, cocoa powder, and food coloring.
- Gently fold the melted chocolate mixture into the egg mixture, then sift in flour and mix until just combined.
- Spoon the batter into molds, filling them about three-quarters full, and smooth the tops.
- Bake for 11-13 minutes until edges are set but centers remain soft and slightly jiggly.
- Let cakes cool in the pan for about 5 minutes, then invert onto a wire rack to cool completely.
- For the glaze, whisk together the glaze ingredients until smooth and drizzle over the unmolded cakes.
