Soft Chocolate Cake


Serves: 4
Cooking Time: 7 min
Ingredients
  • 1/2 cup butter, plus more for buttering molds
  • 4 ounces bittersweet chocolate
  • eggs
  • egg yolks
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 2 teaspoons flour, plus more for dusting

  • Method
  • 1) In the top of a double boiler set over simmering water, heat the butter and chocolate together until the chocolate is almost completely melted. While that's heating, beat together the eggs, yolks, and sugar with a whisk or electric beater until light and thick. 

  • 2) Beat together the melted chocolate and butter; it should be quite warm. Pour in the egg mixture, then quickly beat in the flour, just until combined.  

  • 3) Butter and lightly flour four 4-ounce molds, custard cups, or ramekins. Tap out excess flour, then butter and flour them again. Divide the batter among the molds.  

  • 4) Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Bake the molds on a tray for 6-7 minutes; the center will still be quite soft, but the sides will be set. 

  • 5) Invert each mold onto a plate and let sit for about 10 seconds. Unmould by lifting up one corner of the mold; the cake will fall out onto the plate. Serve immediately.
