- ½ cup butter
- 3 large eggs
- ½ cup sugar
- ¼ cup flour
- 1 teaspoon vanilla

Instructions
- Place chocolate chips and butter in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave for 30 seconds, remove from microwave, and stir.
- Place back in the microwave for another 30 seconds and stir until smooth.
- In a separate bowl, whisk eggs, sugar, flour, and vanilla together until smooth.

Place ramekins on the steam rack, placing 3 of the ramekins directly on the rack and one over the top and in the center of the 3 ramekins (as seen in the photo above).
