Ingredients

1 tbsp unsalted butter
2 tbsp cocoa powder
120 g unsalted butter
120 g dark chocolate
2 eggs
2 egg yolks
120 g caster sugar
1/2 tsp salt
30 g plain flour
4 tbsp creme fraiche

Step 1

Preheat The Oven

Preheat the oven to 200ºC.

Step 2

Line The Ramekins

Grab 4 ramekins or 190ml pudding moulds. Grease the ramekins with a thin layer of butter. Tip cocoa powder into the ramekins and roll them around to coat the whole inside with the cocoa powder.

Step 3

Make The Batter

Dice the butter and chop the chocolate into small cubes. Microwave on high (800W) for 20 seconds at a time, stirring in between until almost all of the chocolate has melted. Stir to melt the last bit of chocolate. Crack the eggs and egg yolks into a mixing bowl. Add the sugar and the salt and whisk until pale. Fold the chocolate mix into the eggs. Add the flour and fold to combine fully.

Step 4

Bake

Pour the chocolate mix into the ramekins, filling about ¾ of the way up. Put the ramekins onto a baking tray and bake for 12-14 minutes (it can take some experimentation with your oven and the size of your moulds!).
