Ingredients
- 6 1/2 (1 ounce) squares semisweet chocolate, finely chopped
- 1/2 cup butter, cut into 8 pieces
- 3 eggs, room temperature
- 1/3 cup white sugar
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 4 teaspoons unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 pinch salt
Instructions
1
Preheat your oven to the required temperature of four hundred degrees Fahrenheit, or two hundred degrees Celsius.
2
Next, take a moment to prepare your ramekins by lightly coating them with butter and dusting them with flour, ensuring they are evenly coated.
3
Now, combine the chocolate and butter in a heat-proof bowl placed over simmering water, stirring constantly to prevent scorching. Continue this process until the chocolate has fully melted, approximately five minutes.
4
In a separate large bowl, whisk together eggs and sugar until they become light and fluffy. Utilize an electric mixer to achieve this, taking around five minutes to complete the task.
5
Once your chocolate has melted, combine it with the egg mixture and add flour, cocoa powder, and a small amount of salt. Mix these ingredients together until they are fully incorporated.
6
Pour the chocolate mixture into your prepared ramekins and arrange them on a baking tray.
7
Place these ramekins in the preheated oven and bake until the edges are set but the centers remain slightly jiggly, taking between ten to thirteen minutes.
8
Finally, allow your baked goods to cool for a short period of time before serving.
