🛒 Ingredients (Serves 4):
- 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter
- 4 oz dark or semi-sweet chocolate (quality matters!)
- 2 large eggs
- 2 large egg yolks
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1/8 tsp salt
- 2 tbsp all-purpose flour
- Butter and cocoa powder for greasing ramekins
👩🍳 Instructions:
1. Prep the Ramekins:
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Generously butter four ramekins and dust them with cocoa powder. Set them on a baking tray.
2. Melt Butter and Chocolate:
In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the butter and chocolate together in 30-second bursts, stirring until smooth. Let cool slightly.
3. Whisk the Eggs:
In another bowl, whisk together the eggs, egg yolks, sugar, and salt until pale and slightly thickened.
4. Combine:
Slowly add the chocolate mixture to the egg mixture, whisking constantly. Gently fold in the flour until just combined.
5. Bake:
Divide the batter evenly between the ramekins. Bake for 12–13 minutes, until the edges are set but the centers are still soft.
