Method
Preparation
Melt Chocolate and Butter
In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the dark chocolate and unsalted butter. Heat in the microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring after each, until melted and smooth.
Mix Sugar and Eggs
In a separate bowl, whisk together the granulated sugar and eggs until well combined and slightly frothy.
Combine Mixtures
Slowly pour the melted chocolate mixture into the egg mixture, whisking continuously to combine. Add the vanilla extract and a pinch of salt.
Add Flour
Sift the all-purpose flour into the chocolate-egg mixture, and gently fold until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
Baking
Fill Ramekins
Evenly distribute the batter into the prepared ramekins, filling each about 3/4 full.
Bake
Place the ramekins on a baking tray and bake in the preheated oven for 12-14 minutes, or until the edges are set but the center is still soft.
Cool Slightly
Remove from the oven and let the cakes cool for 1 minute before inverting onto plates.
Serving
Serve and Garnish
Dust the warm cakes with powdered sugar, serve with a scoop of vanilla ice cream, and garnish with fresh berries.
