Baking Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 450F. Butter and lightly flour 6 (4- to 5-ounce) ramekins and place them on a baking sheet.
- Combine the butter and chocolate in a double boiler and melt over low heat, stirring until smooth. Alternatively, microwave the butter and chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl on high, stirring every 30 seconds until melted. Whisk together until smooth.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the eggs, egg yolks, sugar, and salt. Beat on medium speed until thick and pale yellow.
- Fold the chocolate mixture and flour into the egg mixture until well combined. Divide the batter among the prepared ramekins.
- Bake for 6 to 8 minutes or until the sides of the cakes are firm set but the center is jiggly. Let the cakes cool in the ramekins for 1 minute.
- Invert the cakes onto dessert plates. Let stand for about 10 seconds before removing the ramekin. Sift powdered sugar on top and garnish with berries, if desired. Serve immediately.

Notes
For best results, serve immediately after baking while the center is molten and gooey.
