Ramekins (6oz)

Ingredients

3 Tbsp butter
1/2 cup semi sweet chocolate chopped
1/2 cup powdered sugar
1 egg
1 egg yolk
1/2 tsp vanilla
1/4 cup all purpose flour
non stick baking spray

Instructions

Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.
Spray two 6 oz. ramekins with non stick baking spray.
In a bowl, combine butter and chocolate and melt in microwave or on stove top. Stir every 30 seconds in the microwave until melted and smooth.
Add in powdered sugar, eggs and vanilla. Stir until combined.
Add in flour and mix until just combined. Don't over stir.
Evenly divide mixture into the two ramekins.
Bake for 12-13 minutes or until the edges are firm but the center is still slightly soft. Remove from the oven and let sit for 1 minute.
Turn ramekin upside down onto a serving plate. Sprinkle with powdered sugar, serve with fresh berries and ice cream if desired.

Notes

If you. need to feed more people this recipe can easily be doubled or tripled.
