Have made this recipe twice (both times without the instant coffee), and it was a wonderful both times. Used 6 oz ramekins and it took a little over 15 minutes to reach the correct temperature (started checking at 12 min). Can't wait to try it for company...and might even try the muffin tin version for cute (smaller) cakes!

Had to bake longer than 12 minutes because the centers were not temping to 160 degrees. I made 2 batches because my son is allergic to dairy...the ones made with real butter had the oozing center (not as much as the picture though) and the ones made with non-dairy buttery spread and Ghiradelli chocolate chips did not have any...it had all cooked into the cake. Still, it was very good and my family said that I should make it again.

Although I gave this recipe a high rating, I was disappointed in the flavor as it is written. I plan to make this again, omitting the salt, and expect it will be fantastic! It was very good except for a salty taste. I did bake for about 3 extra minutes.

These are excellent. I have the ones I made pictured on my page. They came out perfect. The middle is like oozing hot brownie batter. I understand that some people are not fans of coffee so they omit it. That's fine of course however for me the instant coffee granules enhance the taste of the chocolate. You can not taste the coffee at all.

Delicious and simple dessert. I worry about the gooey center and having egg in the batter. Is this safe to eat?
