Molten Chocolate Cakes

Ingredients:

• 8 ounces semi-sweet chocolate, melted
• 4 Tablespoons butter, softened
• 1/3 cup sugar
• 3 eggs
• 1 teaspoon vanilla
• 1/3 cup flour
• 1/4 teaspoon salt

Directions:

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Spray six muffin wells (and the surrounding tops) of a muffin pan with non-stick spray.

In a medium bowl, beat the butter and sugar until fluffy, approximately 3 minutes. Scrape down the sides of the bowl and add the eggs one at a time, waiting to add the next one until each egg is fully incorporated. Mix in vanilla.

Using the lowest setting, add the flour and salt until just combined. Add the melted chocolate until thoroughly combined.

Fill each muffin well almost to the top and bake for 8-10 minutes. The cakes will look done on top but will jiggle if you slightly shake the muffin pan.

Let the cakes sit for 10 minutes in the pan. Place a plate over the muffin tins and flip to remove the cakes. Enjoy with ice cream, whipped cream, or powdered sugar.
