Ingredients
- 180 grams Dark chocolate (70% cocoa or higher)
- 115 grams Unsalted butter
- 100 grams Granulated sugar
- 3 pieces Large eggs
- 3 pieces Egg yolks
- 20 grams Cocoa powder (unsweetened)
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 10 grams Butter (for greasing ramekins)
- 5 grams Cocoa powder (for dusting ramekins)
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F).
Step 2
Prepare six 180-200ml (6-7 oz) ramekins by greasing them with butter and dusting the insides with cocoa powder. Tap out any excess cocoa powder and set aside.
Step 3
In a double boiler or heatproof bowl over simmering water, melt the dark chocolate and unsalted butter together, stirring occasionally until smooth. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
Step 4
In a mixing bowl, whisk together the granulated sugar, eggs, and egg yolks until the mixture is pale, thick, and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Step 5
Gradually fold the melted chocolate mixture into the egg mixture, being careful not to deflate the batter.
Step 6
Sift the cocoa powder, salt, and vanilla extract over the mixture. Gently fold these ingredients into the batter until fully combined and smooth.
Step 7
Divide the batter evenly among the prepared ramekins, filling them about three-quarters full.
Step 8
Place the ramekins on a baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are set and the centers are still slightly jiggly.
Step 9
Remove the ramekins from the oven and let them cool for 1 minute. Run a knife around the edges of each cake to loosen and invert onto serving plates if desired. Alternatively, serve directly in the ramekins.
Step 10
Optional: Dust with powdered sugar, top with fresh berries, or serve with a scoop of vanilla ice cream. Enjoy your Flourless Chocolate Oh So Good Molten Cake!
