Ingredients
- ¾ cup dark chocolate chips
- ¾ cup butter

- ⅛ teaspoon vanilla extract
- ¼ cup flour

Instructions
- Heat oven to 375 degrees F. Melt chocolate chips and butter in a small saucepan. Set aside to cool for 10 minutes.
- In a separate bowl, whisk eggs and sugar together.
- Add vanilla and flour. Whisk until flour is well mixed in.
- Once the chocolate has cooled, combine it with the egg mixture.
- Fill 4 (7-ounce) ramekins about three-fourths full with chocolate batter. Bake for 14 minutes.
- Check to make sure the edges of the ramekin are cooked and the top of the cakes appear to be cooked as well.
- Once cooled, sprinkle the cakes lightly with powdered sugar.
- Serve with ice cream or whipped cream.

Notes
- You'll need 4 (7-ounce) ramekins to make these, not a regular cake pan.
- Watch these babies closely. Do not overbake! The cake is supposed to be spongy and cakey on top but gooey and melty in the middle, the consistency of pudding, not too runny. If you put the toothpick all the way down to the bottom and the bottom half of the toothpick doesn't come out clean, you did it right.
