📝 Ingredients

For 4 servings:

100g (3.5 oz) bittersweet chocolate (around 70% cocoa)
100g (7 tbsp) unsalted butter
2 large eggs
2 large egg yolks
50g (1/4 cup) granulated sugar
30g (1/4 cup) all-purpose flour
1 tsp vanilla extract
A pinch of salt
Butter and cocoa powder for dusting ramekins

👨‍🍳 Tools Needed

4 ramekins (6 oz capacity)
Mixing bowls
Whisk or electric hand mixer
Rubber spatula
Baking sheet

🔥 Step-by-Step Instructions

Step 1: Prep the Ramekins

Start by preheating your oven to 220°C (425°F). Grease your ramekins generously with butter, then dust with unsweetened cocoa powder to prevent sticking. Tap out any excess cocoa and place the ramekins on a baking sheet.

Step 2: Melt Chocolate and Butter

In a heatproof bowl, combine the chocolate and butter. Melt them together over a saucepan of simmering water (double boiler method) or microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring in between. Stir until smooth and glossy, then set aside to cool slightly.
