Coat four 6-ounce ramekins with cooking spray then lightly dust them with cocoa powder. Get your oven hot at 425°F.

Put butter chunks and broken chocolate in a bowl. Heat in microwave with short 10-second bursts, stir between each until everything's melted smooth.

In one container, stir together flour, sugar and salt. In another, beat eggs and yolks. Combine everything with your chocolate mix until it looks uniform.

Share the mixture evenly among your prepared ramekins. Pop them in the oven for 12-14 minutes until the edges feel set but centers stay soft.

Let them rest for a minute, then flip onto your serving plates. Top with whatever extras you like and eat right away.

Skip the chocolate chips and go for real chocolate bars

A standard muffin tin works too but only needs 8-10 minutes
03 -
You can mix everything up to 2 days before baking

These taste best when eaten straight from the oven
