So in short, I ended up with something that reminded me of those brownie lava cakes with a cherry center and cherry frosting sauce. So I added some cream cheese and it still stayed runny but tasted amazing. I should tell you I have neither a candy thermometer nor beaters (arm power, baby!) so it may not have been heated up enough over the stove (I whisked it in a bowl placed in a strainer over a pot of boiling water for about 10 mins) and then when it stayed runny, I threw it in a food processor where it still stayed runny. Couldn’t fix it using the troubleshooting page.

Add eggs, one at a time, beating after each addition.Add sugar and beat on medium speed until cooled, 4 to 5 minutes. Melt butter in the microwave and transfer to the mixer bowl.Sift together flour, salt, baking powder, and baking soda set aside.Whisk together cocoa powder and hot water until smooth.To make the cake, preheat oven to 350 and line 2 cupcake pans with 18 liners.Melt the other half of the chocolate and dip the remaining 18 cherries into it, scraping the bottom before setting on a piece of wax paper or a plastic wrap-covered plate.Transfer cherries to a piece of wax paper or a plastic wrap-covered plate.When completely melted, stir in the pitted cherries until completely coated.Melt half of the chopped chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl.To make the chocolate-covered cherry centers, stem and pit 18 cherries.The recipe reads a mile long but it’s not as bad as it seems: You just have to make the chocolate-covered cherry centers, the cupcake batter, the frosting, and the chocolate-covered cherry toppers.
