End on a sweet note with this decadent chocolate lava cake! A rich chocolate exterior giving way to a warm, gooey center is the ultimate indulgence that chocolate lovers dream of!
Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C).
Grease four ramekins with butter and place them on a baking sheet.
In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the dark chocolate and butter together in 30-second intervals, stirring until smooth.
In a mixing bowl, whisk together eggs and granulated sugar until pale and fluffy.
Stir the melted chocolate mixture into the egg mixture until well combined.
Gently fold in the flour and vanilla extract until just combined.
Divide the batter evenly among the prepared ramekins.
Bake in the preheated oven for about 12 minutes or until the edges are firm but the center is still soft.
Remove from the oven, let cool for 1 minute, then carefully invert onto plates.
Dust with powdered sugar and serve immediately, enjoying the gooey center!
