Instructions:

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Grease and flour 4 ramekins.
Melt the chocolate and butter together in a heatproof bowl over simmering water, or in the microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring after each.
Whisk in the powdered sugar until smooth.
Add the eggs, egg yolks, and vanilla extract, whisking until combined.
Gently fold in the flour and salt until just combined.
Divide the batter evenly among the ramekins.
Bake for 12-14 minutes, or until the edges are set but the centers are still soft.
Let the cakes cool in the ramekins for 1 minute, then carefully invert onto serving plates.
Serve immediately, optionally with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream.

Enjoy your delicious, molten lava desserts!
