Method
Directions
Mix Ingredients
In a separate bowl, whisk together the granulated sugar, flour, eggs, egg yolks, vanilla extract, and salt. Pour the melted chocolate mixture into the dry ingredients and mix until just combined.
Fill Ramekins
Divide the batter evenly among the prepared ramekins, filling each about 3/4 full.
Bake
Place the ramekins on a baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for 12-14 minutes, until the edges are firm but the center is soft.
Serve
Remove the ramekins from the oven and let them cool for 1 minute. Carefully invert each ramekin onto a plate and serve immediately with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
