Ingredients:

• 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, plus more for greasing
• 4 ounces bittersweet chocolate, chopped
• 2 large eggs
• 2 large egg yolks
• 1/4 cup sugar
• 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
• 4 tablespoons creamy peanut butter
• A pinch of salt

Equipment:

• 4 ramekins or small baking cups
• Mixing bowls
• Whisk
• Microwave-safe bowl or double boiler
• Oven

Instructions:

1. Preparation: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Grease four ramekins with butter and place them on a baking tray.
2. Melt Chocolate and Butter: In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the chopped chocolate and 1/2 cup of butter. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring after each, until fully melted and smooth. Alternatively, you can melt them together using a double boiler.
3. Whisk Eggs and Sugar: In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, egg yolks, and sugar until the mixture is light and fluffy.
4. Combine Chocolate and Egg Mixtures: Gently fold the melted chocolate mixture into the egg mixture. Then, sift in the flour and a pinch of salt, folding until just combined.
5. Fill Ramekins: Pour the batter into the prepared ramekins, filling them about two-thirds full. Spoon a tablespoon of peanut butter into the center of each ramekin.
6. Bake: Bake the cakes in the preheated oven for about 12-14 minutes. The edges should be firm, but the center will be soft.
7. Serve Immediately: Let the cakes cool for a minute, then invert them onto plates. Serve immediately to enjoy the molten center.

Tips for Beginners:

• Chocolate Quality: Use good quality bittersweet chocolate for the best flavor.
• Peanut Butter: Creamy peanut butter works best for a smooth, molten center.
• Oven Watch: Keep a close eye on the cakes as they bake. Overbaking will cook through the molten center.
