Serves 6

Ingredients

8 1-ounce semisweet chocolate squares, chopped or 1 cup semisweet chocolate chips
2 sticks of butter
5 egg yolks
4 whole eggs
3/4 cup sugar
1/3 cup all-purpose flour
Powdered sugar (optional)

Step By Step Instructions

Preheat oven to 375°F.
Lightly butter sides of 6 individual (3/4 cup) ramekins. Lightly coat with sugar, shake out excess.
Melt chocolate and butter in top of a double boiler set over simmering water. Stir until smooth.
Remove from over water and cool 10 minutes.
Beat egg yolks and whole eggs together in a large bowl; whisk in sugar and beat until thick and light, about 2 minutes.
Fold in chocolate mixture. Sift flour, then fold into batter, mixing until smooth.
Divide batter among prepared cups, filling 3/4 full. Place on a baking sheet and bake about 35 to 40 minutes or until sides of the cake are set and the middle is still soft. Do not over-bake.
Using a small knife, cut around sides of cakes to loosen. Place onto plates (sprinkle with powdered sugar if you choose) and serve with your favorite ice cream.
