Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). In heavy pot on low heat, melt chocolate and butter together. Cool slightly.
Beat together sugar and egg yolks with an electric mixer until thick and creamy, about 4 minutes.
Pour in chocolate mixture and beat together for 5 minutes.
In a separate bowl, beat egg whites until stiff peaks form, about three minutes. Fold into mixture along with flour.
Pour into 6 non-stick buttered moulds or non-stick muffin tins. Bake for 5 to 7 minutes or until edges are just cooked and centre is still liquid.
Cool for 5 minutes in tins. Carefully remove to serving dishes. Serve with lightly whipped cream.
