Servings 3 cakes

Ingredients
  

  • ½ cup salted butter
  • 6 oz Abuelita chocolate
  • ¼ cup sugar
  • 2 eggs
  • 2 egg yolks
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • 2 tablespoon flour
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • ½ teaspoon chili powder

Instructions
 

  • Start by preparing your ramekins. Using Three, 8oz ramekins; butter each one and the coat in coco powder to prevent sticking. If using 6oz ramekins you should be able to get 4 cakes.
  • Over a double boiler melt your chocolate and butter. Set aside to cool.
  • In a large bowl beat your eggs, egg yolks, sugar on high until thickened and pale in color.
  • Add the chocolate mixture slowly to your egg mixture while mixing on high.
  • In a separate bowl mix your flour, salt, cinnamon and chili powder. Mix this into your wet ingredients.
  • Pour your batter evenly into your prepared ramekins. Bake at 450 degrees F for 14min if you are using 6oz ramekins OR 18 minutes if you are using 8oz ramekins or until the edges are firm but the center is still slightly soft.
  • Once they come out of the oven let them rest for 20 minutes. Then place a plate on top of your ramekin and flip over. Serve immediately! If you wait too long after this or refrigerate them the molten center will solidify.
