Ingredients
- 3 ounces bittersweet chocolate
- 3/4 stick butter
- 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 3/4 cup confectioner's sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 egg yolk
- 1 1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 8 prepackaged caramel candies, unwrapped
- sea salt
Preparation
Step 1
Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
Add chocolate and butter to a microwave safe medium sized bowl and heat in intervals of 20 seconds stirring after each heating until completely melted and smooth.
Next whisk in all-purpose flour and confectioner's sugar until batter is smooth.
Lastly, whisk in two eggs and egg yolk and vanilla extract until the batter is well blended.
Using 4 (6 ounce) ramekins that have been sprayed with non-stick spray, fill each ramekin half way with cake batter. Next add two unwrapped caramels into each ramekin then sprinkle with sea salt (about a ⅛-1/4 teaspoon per cake depending on how much salty flavor you want). Spoon remaining cake batter over each cake.
Bake cakes for 12-14 minutes then remove from oven.
Let cool for 2 minutes then take a knife and run along the inside of each ramekin to help release the cake.
Invert the cakes on individual plates. Dust with sea salt or powdered sugar and serve warm.
