This is a must try dessert! It is tender, rich and oh so fudgey on the inside. I halved the recipe and cooked it in a 15 ounce oven-safe dish. It turned out absolutely perfect AND delicious! Recipe courtesy of Nigella Lawyson from her television show, Nigella Feasts.
Ingredients:
1/2 cup unsalted butter
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
4 ounces semisweet chocolate, with 60 percent cocoa solids
2 eggs
3/4 cup superfine sugar
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
Directions:
1. Place a baking sheet in the oven and preheat to 400 degrees F.
2. ****Butter the ramekins with 1 tablespoon butter.
3. Either in a microwave or in a bowl suspended over a pan over simmering water, melt the dark chocolate and 1 stick butter, then set aside to cool a little.
4. In another bowl, mix the eggs with the sugar and flour with a hand whisk and beat in the cooled butter and chocolate mixture.
5. Divide the mixture between the 4 buttered ramekins.
6. Bake for about 20 minutes, by which time the tops will be cooked and cracked and the chocolate gooey underneath.
7. Place each ramekin on a small plate with a teaspoon and serve.
8. Make sure to warn people that these desserts will be HOT!
9. ****Special equipment: 4 (2/3 to 1-cup capacity) ramekins.
