Yield 4 cakes

Number Of Ingredients 6

8 tbsp. (1 stick) unsalted butter
2 tsp. all-purpose flour
4 oz. bittersweet chocolate (70-80% cacao)
2 large eggs
2 large egg yolks
1/4 cup sugar

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 450 F. Butter and flour four 4-oz. molds (such as brioche tins), ramekins, or custard cups. Tap out excess flour; butter and flour them again and set aside. In a heatproof bowl set over simmering water, combine butter and chocolate. Heat until chocolate has almost completely melted. In an electric mixer with the paddle attachment, beat together eggs, yolks, and sugar until light and thick. Add melted chocolate mixture and beat to combine. Quickly beat in flour until just combined. Divide batter evenly among the molds. Place filled molds on a rimmed baking sheet and bake until the sides have set but the centers remain soft, 6-7 minutes. Invert each mold onto a serving plate and let rest 10 seconds. Unmold by lifting up one corner of the mold; the cake should fall out onto the plate. Serve immediately.
