- 4 1/2 tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into small pieces
- 2 eggs
- 1/3 cup sugar
- 1/4 cup sifted all-purpose flour

- Position a rack in the lower third of an oven and preheat to 450u0b0F.
- Grease two 6-oz. ramekins and dust lightly with cocoa powder.
- In a medium heatproof bowl, combine the chocolate and butter.
- Set the bowl over but not touching simmering water in a saucepan and melt the chocolate and butter, stirring often, until smooth and blended.
- (Do not overcook.) Let cool to room temperature.
- In a bowl, whisk together the eggs and sugar until completely blended and frothy.
- Using a large spatula, gently fold in the chocolate mixture until smooth and blended.
