- 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, at room temperature
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 4 large eggs
- 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
- 1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon salt
Instructions:
1. Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C).
2. In a medium bowl, whisk together flour and salt.
3. In a separate bowl, melt chocolate in the microwave in 30-second increments, stirring between each interval, until smooth.
4. In a large bowl, using an electric mixer, beat together butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
5. Beat in eggs one at a time, followed by vanilla extract.
6. Gradually mix in flour mixture, then melted chocolate.
7. Pour batter into 4 (6-ounce) ramekins or small cups.
8. Place ramekins on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
9. Bake for 12-15 minutes or until edges are set, but centers are still slightly jiggly.
10. Remove from oven and let cool in ramekins for 1 minute.
11. Run a knife around edges to release cakes, then invert onto plates.
12. Serve immediately, with ice cream or whipped cream if desired.
Tips:
