Instructions

  1. Step 1: Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Butter four 6-ounce ramekins and dust with cocoa powder, tapping out excess.
  2. Step 2: Melt dark chocolate and butter in a heatproof bowl set over simmering water, stirring until smooth and glossy.
  3. Step 3: Whisk egg yolks and sugar in a bowl until pale and thickened, about 3 minutes. Fold in melted chocolate mixture and then sifted flour and cocoa powder until no lumps remain.
  4. Step 4: In a clean bowl, beat egg whites until stiff peaks form. Gently fold into chocolate batter in three additions until fully incorporated and no streaks remain.
  5. Step 5: Divide batter evenly among prepared ramekins, filling to 3/4 full. Place ramekins on a baking sheet and bake for 12-14 minutes until edges are set but centers are still soft.
  6. Step 6: Let cool for 1 minute, then invert onto dessert plates. Serve immediately with fresh raspberries and a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
