Ingredients
- 120 grams unsalted butter
- 150 grams semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 50 grams dark chocolate chips
- 100 grams granulated sugar
- 50 grams light brown sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 2 large egg yolks
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 60 grams all-purpose flour
- 15 grams unsweetened cocoa powder
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 10 grams powdered sugar (optional, for garnish)
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F). Lightly grease four 6-ounce ramekins with unsalted butter and dust them with a thin layer of cocoa powder. Tap out any excess cocoa powder.
Step 2
In a heatproof bowl, combine the unsalted butter, semi-sweet chocolate chips, and dark chocolate chips. Set the bowl over a pot of simmering water (double boiler) and stir until melted and smooth. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
Step 3
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the granulated sugar and light brown sugar with the eggs and egg yolks until the mixture is light and frothy, about 2 minutes.
Step 4
Add the cooled chocolate mixture to the egg mixture and gently whisk to combine. Stir in the vanilla extract.
Step 5
Sift the all-purpose flour, cocoa powder, and salt into the bowl and fold gently using a spatula until just combined. Avoid overmixing.
Step 6
Divide the batter evenly between the prepared ramekins, filling each about three-quarters full.
Step 7
Place the ramekins on a baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are set but the centers are still soft. The cakes should jiggle slightly when gently shaken.
Step 8
Remove from the oven and let the ramekins cool for 1-2 minutes. Carefully run a knife around the edges of each ramekin to loosen the cakes.
Step 9
Invert each ramekin onto a serving plate and gently tap to release the cakes. Optionally, dust with powdered sugar for garnish.
Step 10
Serve immediately while warm, ideally with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream on the side.
