A signature dessert at the Adolfo restaurant in Toledo, these airy individual chocolate cakes are almost as spongy and soft as soufflés. Adolfo Muñoz, the chef-proprietor, serves them with house-made vanilla ice cream infused with fresh thyme. You can make your own Thyme Ice Cream or use store-bought ice cream scattered with thyme leaves. Make sure the ramekins are buttered and dusted well with sugar; otherwise the cakes will stick.
