Chocolate Molten Lava Cake

Makes 2 large or 4 small servings

Ingredients:

• 1/2 cup bitter-sweet chocolate chips
• 2 tbsp butter
• 2 eggs
• 2 tbsp sugar
• 1/4 tsp vanilla extract
• pinch of salt
• 2 tsp all purpose flour

optional: cocoa powder and cold glass of milk

Directions:

1. Preheat oven to 375F. Lightly grease ramekins and set aside.
2. Melt butter and stir in chocolate chips until smooth. Set aside to cool. You can opt to double-boil or microwave. Do not over-heat.
3. Meantime, whisk eggs and sugar until frothy. Stir in vanilla extract.
4. Combine eggs into melted chocolate and stir until smooth. Sift in salt and flour. Stir only until combined. Do not over-mix.
5. Equally divide batter into greased ramekins and bake between 6 to 8 minutes. The longer you bake, the less molten.
6. Allow lava cakes to cool in the ramekins for 5 minutes before inverting onto a plate. Sift cocoa powder and dig in immediately with a glass of cold milk in tow!
