I doctored up a recipe I found in the newspaper years ago. When you see the gooey chocolate dripping out, you know you're in for an awesome dessert. —Genise Krause, Sturgeon Bay, Wisconsin

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup butter, cubed
  • 4 ounces bittersweet chocolate, chopped
  • 2 large eggs

  • 1/8 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 cup all-purpose flour

Directions

  • 1. Preheat oven to 425°. In a small heavy saucepan, heat butter and chocolate over low heat until blended, stirring constantly; transfer to a large bowl.
  • 2. Add eggs, egg yolks, sugar, extract and salt to chocolate mixture; mix well. Stir in flour. Pour into four greased 6-oz. custard cups or ramekins.
