Preparation

Step 1

Place chocolate chips and butter in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave for 30 seconds, remove from microwave and stir.

In a separate bowl, whisk eggs, sugar, flour, and vanilla together until smooth.

Pour chocolate mixture into egg mixture and stir well to combine.

Fill each ramekin 2/3 of the way full with batter.

Put steam rack in the bottom of the Instant Pot and add 2 cups of water.

Place ramekins on the steam rack, placing 3 of the ramekins directly on the rack and one over the top and in the center of the 3 ramekins (as seen in photo above).

Place lid on Instant Pot and place tab to "sealing". Manually set the time to 8 minutes on "high" pressure.

Quick release the pressure and carefully remove ramekins from Instant Pot.
