Chocolate Lava Cake 🍫
Ingredients (makes 4):
• 4 oz (115 g) dark or semi-sweet chocolate, chopped
• ½ cup (115 g) unsalted butter
• 2 large eggs + 2 egg yolks
• ¼ cup (50 g) sugar
• 2 tbsp (16 g) all-purpose flour
• Pinch of salt
• Butter and cocoa powder, for the ramekins

Directions:
1. Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). Butter 4 ramekins and dust them with cocoa powder.
2. Melt the chocolate and butter together in the microwave or over a double boiler, stirring until smooth.
3. In a bowl, whisk the eggs, egg yolks and sugar until pale and slightly thick.
4. Pour in the melted chocolate and whisk until combined.
5. Gently fold in the flour and salt until just mixed.
6. Divide the batter evenly between the ramekins.
7. Bake for 12–14 minutes, until the edges are set but the center still jiggles.
8. Let rest for 1 minute, then run a knife around the edges and flip onto plates.
9. Top with a scoop of vanilla ice cream, berries and chocolate shavings. Serve warm!
