Ingredients 

Main Ingredients

  • ½ cup Unsalted Butter
  • 4 oz Semisweet Chocolate chopped
  • 2 Eggs
  • 2 Egg Yolks
  • ¼ cup Sugar
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
  • ¼ cup All-purpose Flour sifted

Instructions 

  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Grease four ramekins and place them on a baking sheet.
  2. Melt the butter and chocolate together in a microwave-safe bowl or over a double boiler. Stir until smooth.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, egg yolks, sugar, and vanilla until thick and pale.
  4. Fold the melted chocolate mixture into the egg mixture. Add the flour and mix until just combined.
  5. Divide the batter evenly among the prepared ramekins.
  6. Bake for 10-12 minutes, until the edges are set but the center is still soft.
  7. Let the cakes cool in the ramekins for 1 minute, then run a knife around the edges to loosen and invert onto plates. Serve immediately.
