Cake Preparation
1. Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
2. Melt Butter and Chocolate
In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the unsalted butter and semi-sweet chocolate. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring in between, until completely melted and smooth.
3. Mix Wet Ingredients
In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, granulated sugar, and vanilla extract until well combined and slightly frothy.
4. Combine Mixtures
Slowly pour the melted chocolate mixture into the egg mixture, whisking continuously to prevent the eggs from cooking. Mix until fully incorporated.
5. Add Dry Ingredients
Sift the all-purpose flour and salt into the chocolate mixture. Gently fold until just combined; do not overmix.
6. Prepare Ramekins
Grease four ramekins with butter and dust with cocoa powder, tapping out the excess. This will help the cakes to release easily.
7. Fill Ramekins
Divide the batter evenly among the prepared ramekins, filling each about two-thirds full.
8. Bake
Place the 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.
