Instructions

  1. 1 Set air fryer to 380 degrees F (190 degrees C) and allow it to heat while making the potato cakes.
  2. 2 If using a basket style air fryer, cut two pieces of heavy duty aluminum foil about 4 inches wide and 16 inches long to form a foil sling. Spray the sling with cooking spray. For a tray or rack style air fryer, cut the long edges of the foil to fit the tray or rack.
  3. 3 Crack egg into a mixing bowl and lightly beat with salt and pepper.
  4. 4 Mix in cold mashed potatoes, 2 Tablespoons flour, and Cheddar cheese. Divide potato mixture into 6 equal-sized portions.
  5. 5 Combine panko and 1/2 cup flour on a plate.
  6. 6 Set a portion of the potato mixture onto the plate and flatten it into a cake, about 4 inches across. Gather up some flour and panko and pat into the top. Place on the oiled foil sling.
  7. 7 Continue until all the potato cakes are formed and placed on the oiled slings, three patties close together on each sling. Leave enough foil on both ends of the sling to help lift the cakes in and our of the basket. See note. Liberally spray the tops of the cakes with olive oil.
  8. 8 Carefully lift each sling and place it into the basket of the air fryer, allowing the ends of the foil to come up the sides of the basket. (See Cook's Note).
  9. 9 Air fry until desired doneness is achieved, about 10 minutes.
  10. 10 Carefully remove the slings from the air fryer. Use a spatula to place the cakes on a serving plate, sprinkle with chives, and serve.

Instructions

  1. 1 Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
  2. 2 Liberally spray six 6 oz ramekins with nonstick cooking spray and place on a baking sheet.
  3. 3 In a double boiler, melt the chocolate and butter.
  4. 4 Alternative: Use a medium size stainless bowl that sits on top of a small saucepan (with water in saucepan) if you do not have a double boiler. Do not let any water get into the melting chocolate.
  5. 5 Remove from heat and cool.
  6. 6 In a large mixing bowl beat eggs with hand mixer for several minutes and thoroughly foamy.
  7. 7 Add sugar, dry mashed potatoes, cocoa powder, vanilla extract, espresso powder and salt. Beat a couple of minutes to mix.
  8. 8 Add the melted chocolate mixture and beat for five minutes. This recipe works best if lots of air is incorporated into the mixture to make the cakes light and airy.
  9. 9 Pour into ramekins. DO NOT under bake or over bake the cakes. Bake for 15 to 17 minutes. Keep your eye on them; you want them to be molten (a bit soft in the middle), but not too much.
  10. 10 Let them rest a few minutes before serving. The center may sink a little - don't worry.
  11. 11 Run a thin knife around the inside edge to help release the cakes.
  12. 12 Top with powdered sugar and whip cream.
