Molten Chocolate Cakes
1/2 cup unsalted butter
5 oz bittersweet chocolate, chopped (or semisweet chocolate chips)
1/2 cup sugar
2 eggs
1 cup minus 2 1/2 tbsp flour
Melt butter and chocolate in microwave, or in a double boiler. Let cool for 2 minutes. Whisk in sugar, then eggs. Add the flour and stir until blended. Spoon the batter in buttered and sugared ramekins. Bake for 14 minutes, until tops are just set (do not overbake). Let the ramekins cool for 2 minutes, then run a knife around the outside, and invert the cakes onto plates. Serve warm.
Yield: 4 small cakes - rich enough for 1 cake to serve 2 people
