Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease two ramekins with butter or a non-stick spray.
In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the unsweetened chocolate and butter. Microwave on high in 30-second intervals, stirring after each, until both are melted and smooth.
Stir in the granulated erythritol, then add almond flour and cocoa powder, mixing until well combined.
In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs, then add them to the chocolate mixture along with the vanilla extract and salt. Mix the ingredients until the batter is smooth and well incorporated.
Divide the batter evenly between the prepared ramekins.
Place the ramekins on a baking tray and bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes. The edges should be set, but the center should remain soft.
Remove from the oven and let them cool for 1-2 minutes.
Run a knife around the edges of each cake to loosen, then invert onto plates.
Serve immediately, optionally garnished with a dusting of additional cocoa powder or a dollop of whipped cream for extra indulgence.
