Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 200 grams Dark chocolate (70% cocoa)
- 100 grams Unsalted butter (plus extra for greasing)
- 100 grams Granulated sugar
- 2 pieces Large eggs
- 2 pieces Egg yolks
- 50 grams All-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons Cocoa powder (for dusting)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 200°C (390°F). Grease four individual ramekins with butter and dust the insides with cocoa powder to prevent sticking. Set aside.
In a heatproof bowl over a pot of simmering water, melt the dark chocolate and butter together, stirring occasionally until smooth. Remove from heat and let it cool slightly.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the granulated sugar, eggs, and egg yolks until the mixture is pale and slightly thickened.
Slowly pour the melted chocolate mixture into the egg mixture, gently folding to combine.
Sift the flour into the mixture and fold gently until fully incorporated and smooth. Do not overmix.
Divide the batter evenly between the prepared ramekins, filling each about three-quarters full.
Place the ramekins on a baking tray and bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the tops are just set but the centers remain gooey.
Remove from the oven and let the puddings rest for 1-2 minutes. Carefully run a knife around the edges to loosen, then invert each onto a plate or serve directly in the ramekins.
Serve immediately while warm. Optionally, garnish with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dusting of powdered sugar.
