Ingredients
- 170 grams Semi-sweet chocolate
- 115 grams Unsalted butter
- 150 grams Granulated sugar
- 60 grams All-purpose flour
- 4 Large eggs
- 1 pinch Salt
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons Cocoa powder
- 1 tablespoon Powdered sugar (for garnish)
- 0 Berries (optional, for garnish)
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and lightly butter six 6-ounce ramekins. Dust the ramekins with cocoa powder, tapping out the excess to ensure the cakes don’t stick.
Step 2
Melt the semi-sweet chocolate and unsalted butter together in a heatproof bowl over a pot of simmering water, stirring until smooth and well combined. Remove from heat and let it cool slightly.
Step 3
In a mixing bowl, whisk together the granulated sugar, eggs, and vanilla extract until the mixture is light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Step 4
Slowly pour the melted chocolate mixture into the egg mixture, stirring gently to combine.
Step 5
Sift the flour and add it to the batter along with a pinch of salt. Fold everything together until just incorporated. Do not overmix.
Step 6
Divide the batter evenly among the prepared ramekins, filling each about 3/4 full.
Step 7
Place the ramekins on a baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for 12 minutes, or until the edges are set but the center remains soft and slightly jiggly.
Step 8
Remove the ramekins from the oven and let them cool for 1-2 minutes. Run a knife around the edges of each ramekin, then invert the cakes onto dessert plates.
Step 9
Dust the warm cakes with powdered sugar and serve immediately. Garnish with fresh berries if desired.
