Preparation

Step 1

Butter 8 six ounce ceramic ramekins and dust with flour. In a bowl over a double boiler, melt butter and chocolate, set aside and let cool. In a mixing bowl, use electric mixer to combine eggs and sugar until pale yellow batter hold shape and forms ribbon on beaters. Blend flour into egg sugar mixture with the mixer for 3 minutes. Add chocolate mixture, being careful to incorporate everything; mix for 2 more minutes. Pour about 6oz of batter into each ramekin and refrigerate for 1 hour. In preheated 475 oven, bake ramekins on a cookie sheet for 10-12 minutes, or until they are puffed up and don't jiggle when moved. Remove from oven and serve immediately. Can be served with chocolate sauce or whipped cream.
