Classic Caesar Salad

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Grease four ramekins with butter and dust with cocoa powder, tapping out the excess.

Prepare the Oven and Ramekins

In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the dark chocolate and unsalted butter. Heat in the microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring in between, until melted and smooth.

Melt the Chocolate and Butter

In a mixing bowl, whisk together the granulated sugar, eggs, egg yolk, and vanilla extract until well combined. Slowly pour in the melted chocolate mixture, stirring continuously. Gently fold in the flour and salt until just combined.

Mix the Batter

Evenly distribute the batter into the prepared ramekins, filling them about 3/4 full.

Fill Ramekins

Place the ramekins on a baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for 12-14 minutes, until the sides are firm but the center is soft.

Bake

Let the cakes cool for 1 minute, then carefully invert them onto plates. Dust with powdered sugar and serve immediately.
