Forget store-bought desserts - just whip up this decadent confection in a few easy steps.
Ingredients (makes 6):
125g butter
2 tsp plain flour, plus extra to coat ramekins
110g dark chocolate couverture or dark chocolate chips
2 eggs
2 egg yolks
1/4 cup sugar
6 scoops vanilla ice cream
Method:
1. Pre-heat oven to 180 deg C. Grease 6 ramekins with butter and dust them with flour. Tap to remove excess flour.
2. Put the butter and chocolate in a heatproof bowl. Set in a saucepan quarter-filled with water over low heat. Stir occasionally until the mixture melts. Set aside to cool.
3. In a separate bowl, beat the eggs, egg yolks and sugar until light and fluffy.
4. Combine the cooled chocolate mixture with the egg mixture, and mix well.
5. Add the flour and mix well.
6. Pour the batter into the ramekins, until 3/4 full. Bake for 6 minutes. Gently unmould them and serve with vanilla ice cream.
Tips:
Use milk chocolate in place of dark chocolate couverture and serve with fresh berries to cut through the sweetness.
