Ingredients

• 4 oz dark chocolate chips
• 4 tbsp unsalted butter
• 2 large eggs
• 2 egg yolks
• 1/4 cup granulated sugar
• 2 tbsp all-purpose flour
• 1 pinch salt
• 1 tsp vanilla extract

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 425°F and generously grease four 6-oz ramekins with butter, then dust lightly with cocoa powder.
2. Melt chocolate chips and butter together in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second bursts, stirring between each, until smooth. Let cool slightly.
3. Whisk eggs, egg yolks, and sugar together in a bowl until pale and slightly thick, then stir in vanilla.
4. Pour the melted chocolate mixture into the egg mixture and stir to combine, then fold in flour and salt until just incorporated.
5. Divide batter evenly among the prepared ramekins and place on a baking sheet. Bake for 12 minutes until the edges are set but the center still jiggles.
6. Remove from oven, let rest 1 minute, then run a knife around the edge of each ramekin and invert onto a plate. Serve immediately.
