- 6 oz dark or semi sweet chocolate baking chocolate or chocolate chips both work
- ¼ cup unsalted butter
- ¼ cup milk
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- ⅓ cup sour cream
- ½ tsp soy sauce
- ½ tsp vanilla
- ¼ tsp espresso powder
- ½ cup flour
Preheat oven to 425℉. Grease 4 ramekins with butter. Set aside on a cooking sheet. If using baking chocolate, break chocolate into small chunks. Add the milk and butter to the chocolate in a microwave safe bowl. Microwave 30 seconds. If chocolate hasn't fully melted, continue to heat in two 15 second increments. Let it sit 2-3 minutes to fully melt the chocolate.
Stir the chocolate with a spatula until thoroughly combined. Gently mix in the powdered sugar until it is smooth. Some lumps are ok. Fold in the sour cream, soy sauce, vanilla, and espresso powder til combined. Fold in the flour.
Divide evenly between the ramekins. Bake for 15 minutes until the sides are firm and the center is soft. The cakes are done when a toothpick inserted into the edges comes out nearly clean and the center when pricked still has wet batter attached. Let the cakes cool 1 minute. Rim the cakes with a butter knife, invert onto a plate, dust with powdered sugar, and serve immediately with whip cream and berries for an extra special treat!
