Cake Preparation
Melt the Chocolate and Butter
In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the unsweetened chocolate and unsalted butter. Microwave in 30-second intervals until melted and smooth, stirring between intervals.
Mix the Batter
In a mixing bowl, combine the melted chocolate mixture with granulated sugar. Stir in the eggs and egg yolks until well combined. Add vanilla extract, all-purpose flour, and a pinch of salt. Mix until smooth.
Fill the Ramekins
Divide the batter evenly into the prepared ramekins, filling each about 3/4 full.
Bake the Cakes
Place the filled ramekins on a baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for 12-14 minutes, or until the edges are firm but the center is still soft.
Cool and Serve
Allow the cakes to cool for 1 minute before carefully inverting them onto plates. Dust with powdered sugar and serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
