Molten Chocolate Cake

  • 3

Ingredients

  • 4 ounces bittersweet chocolate
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter
  • 3 egg yolks
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 3 egg whites

Preparation

Step 1

Lightly grease 3 ramekins with butter.

Melt the chocolate into the butter in a double boiler and let cool a bit.

Beat the egg yolks and sugar and mix into the chocolate.

Beat the egg whites in a bowl until they form soft peaks.

Pour the batter into the ramekins, no more than 2/3 full.

Bake in a preheated 400F oven for 7-10 minutes. The outside will be set and possibly crack and the inside will still be liquid.
