Chocolate Lava Cake

If you're looking for a delicious, quick and easy dessert to make for your friends and family, here's one of my absolute favorites:

Chocolate Lava Cake

4 Baker's Semi Sweet Chocolate Squares
1/2 stick butter
1 cup powdered sugar
2 eggs
2 egg yolks
6 Tbsp flour

PREHEAT oven to 425°F. Butter four 3/4-cup custard cups or soufflé dishes. Place on baking sheet.

MICROWAVE chocolate and butter in large microwaveable bowl on HIGH 1 min. or until butter is melted. Stir with wire whisk until chocolate is completely melted. Stir in sugar until well blended. Blend in eggs and egg yolks with wire whisk. Stir in flour. Divide batter among prepared custard cups.
BAKE 13 to 14 min. or until sides are firm but centers are soft. Let stand 1 min. Carefully run small knife around cakes to loosen. Invert cakes onto dessert dishes. Serve immediately.

This can serve 4-8 people, depending on the hunger level, and if you're serving it with ice cream or not.  It's a very filling dessert!

If you want to make this ahead of time, just prepare the mixture and add it to the buttered custard cups.  Then cover it with plastic wrap and refrigerate it.  When you're ready to bake the cake, let the cups sit out for a half hour before you put them in the oven.
Also, this recipe turns out best when you put the cakes in the middle rack and don't open the oven to check them until the 13 minutes is up.

Happy baking and good luck!!
