Time 40m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

5 1/2 ounces imported bittersweet chocolate (not unsweetened, preferably Valrhona from France), coarsely chopped (see note)
11 tablespoons unsalted butter, cut in large pieces
3 large eggs
3 large egg yolks
1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons sugar
5 tablespoons all purpose flour
Vanilla ice cream

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 325 degrees. Butter and flour 6 6-ounce custard cups.
  • Place the chocolate and butter in a metal bowl, and set it over a pan of simmering water. Stir until melted and smooth. Cool slightly.
  • Using an electric mixer, beat the eggs, yolks and sugar until they are pale and thick, about 10 minutes. Reduce the speed, and gradually mix in the flour.
  • Add the chocolate mixture to the flour mixture, and continue to beat until thick and glossy, about 5 minutes.
  • Divide among the prepared cups. Bake until the cake is set around the edges but the center moves slightly when the cup is moved, about 12 minutes. Cool slightly.
  • Run a sharp knife around the edges of the cups. Turn out onto plates, and serve warm with ice cream.
