What you need

tbsp all purpose flour
egg

tsp food color

semi sweet chocolate chips

cup unsalted butter

tsp vanilla extract

pinch salt
Instructions
Pre-heat your oven to 450F (conventional) and prepare 2 6 oz ramekins by generously brushing butter inside them. Add chocolate and butter to a heat-safe bowl, and microwave in 20 second increments until both have melted. Stir to combine. In a separate bowl, add the egg, sugar, salt and vanilla. Use an electric hand mixer to whisk for 2-3 minutes until the mixture is light, frothy and almost triple in volume. Pour the chocolate mixture into the egg mixture and whisk until just combined. Sift in the flour, and use a rubber spatula to gently fold until the flour is mixed in. Take care to be gentle and not to overmix. Add the red food color and gently fold. You can adjust the quantity based on how strong you want the pay-off to be. Divide the batter between the two ramekins. Bake for ~10-11 minutes until the edges are done but the center is still molten (you can tell by a wobble in the cakes). Let the cakes cool inside the ramekins for 1-2 minutes, then carefully turn them out onto your dessert plates. Dust with powdered sugar, and serve!View original recipe
