- ½cupunsalted butter,(1 stick)
- ¼cupall purpose flour,spoon & leveled
- ½cupconfectioners’ sugar
- ⅛tspsalt
- 2large eggs
- 2large egg yolks
- 8tspcreamy peanut butter,about 2 tsp per cake
For Optional For Serving:
- ice cream,melted peanut butter and/or chocolate syrup for drizzling
Instructions
-
Spray each ramekin with nonstick cooking spray and dust with cocoa powder. This ensures the cakes will seamlessly come out of the ramekins when inverted onto a plate.
-
Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.
-
Coarsely chop the chocolate. Place butter into a medium heat-proof bowl, then add chopped chocolate on top.
-
Microwave on high in 10-second increments, stirring after each until completely smooth. Set aside.
-
Whisk the flour, confectioners’ sugar, and salt together in a small bowl. Whisk the eggs and egg yolks together until combined in another small bowl.
-
Pour the flour mixture and eggs into the bowl of chocolate. Slowly stir everything together using a rubber spatula or wooden spoon. If there are any lumps, gently use a whisk to rid them. The batter will be slightly thick.
-
Spoon the chocolate batter evenly into each prepared ramekin. Top with peanut butter and use a spoon to slightly press it down into the batter. Some may still be exposed.
-
Place ramekins onto a baking sheet and bake for 12 to 13 minutes until the sides appear solid and firm. The top may still look slightly soft.
-
Allow to cool for 1 minute, then cover each with an inverted plate and turn over. Use an oven mitt because those ramekins are hot! The cakes should release easily from the ramekin.
-
Top with ice cream and melted peanut butter and/or chocolate syrup for serving, if desired. Serve immediately.
