The best chocolate lava cake recipe I've ever had. Serve topped with powdered sugar or vanilla ice cream.

Ingredients | Vasilopita Cake

½ cup butter, cut into 8 pieces

6 ½ (1 ounce) squares semisweet chocolate, finely chopped

3 eggs, room temperature

⅓ cup white sugar

4 teaspoons unsweetened cocoa powder

2 tablespoons all-purpose flour

1 pinch salt

Directions

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Grease and flour four 6-ounce ramekins.

Place chocolate and butter in the top of a double boiler over simmering water. Stir frequently, scraping down the sides with a rubber spatula to avoid scorching, until chocolate is melted, about 5 minutes.

Combine eggs and sugar in a large bowl; beat with an electric mixer until pale and thick, about 5 minutes. Mix in melted chocolate, cocoa powder, and flour until combined. Pour batter into the prepared ramekins and place on a baking tray.

Bake in the preheated oven until the sides are set but the middle is still jiggly, 10 to 13 minutes. Let cool for 5 minutes before serving.
