Molten Lava Cakes aka Chocolaty Deliciousness :)

We enjoyed a nice pork tenderloin for our Valentines dinner and for dessert I made chocolate molten lava cakes.  Ryan's mom Jackie always made these for us for special occasions and I guess we were starting to miss them so I found my own recipe and created them for us :)  This is super easy and probably looks a whole lot more complicated than they really are.  They are so worth it and if you aren't serving multiple people, you can save the batter for later and make individual servings or is perfect just for two.  

Ingredients (6 individual cakes):

4 ounces dark chocolate

2/3 cup unsalted butter

4 eggs

2/3 cup granulated sugar

1/2 cup all-purpose flour

Directions:

Melt chocolate and butter over double broiler until melted.  Let sit for about 15 minutes.  Meanwhile, whip eggs and sugar until fluffy and ribbon like.  Add flour and mix again.  Slowly add chocolate to the egg/sugar mix and beat until all ingredients combined.  

Preheat oven to 400 degrees.  

Grease ramekins with butter and fill with batter. Chill in the fridge until ready to bake. Bake for 15 minutes or until cake top is set.  Remove from oven and let sit for 5 minutes.  Score around each cake with a knife for easy removal and invert onto serving plates.  Serve with vanilla ice cream!
