Equipment
- Ramekins
- Mixing Bowls
- Whisk
- Saucepan
- Oven
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter
- 6 oz semisweet chocolate chopped
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 2 large egg yolks
- 1/3 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/2 cup fresh raspberries
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400°F and prepare four ramekins by greasing them with butter for the molten cakes.
- Combine unsalted butter and semisweet chocolate in a saucepan over low heat, stirring until the mixture is smooth and fully incorporated.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together sugar, eggs, and egg yolks until the mixture becomes pale and thick. Gradually incorporate the melted chocolate mixture into the egg mixture.
- Carefully fold in all-purpose flour and salt until just combined, ensuring not to overmix the batter. Divide the batter equally among the prepared ramekins.
- Place 2-3 fresh raspberries into the batter in each ramekin, gently pressing them down so they are partially submerged, adding a delightful burst of fruity flavor.
- Bake the molten cakes in the preheated oven for 12-14 minutes until the edges are set but the center remains soft and gooey. Enjoy these decadent treats warm for the best experience.
