Directions

1. Step1

   For filling, combine 1/2 cup chocolate chips, whipping cream, and 1 tablespoon butter in a small saucepan. Stir and melt over low heat until chocolate is melted and mixture is smooth. Cool and refrigerate for 2 hours.

2. Step2

   Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Combine remaining 1/3 cup chocolate chips and remaining 1/4 cup butter in a saucepan. Stir until chocolate is melted and mixture is smooth. Set aside.

3. Step3

   Butter and lightly flour five 4-oz. ramekins; set aside. Beat eggs and sugar with an electric mixer on medium for 5 minutes. Beat in flour and chocolate-butter mixture. Spoon 1-inch of batter in each ramekin.

4. Step4

   Divide chilled filling into five portions; roll into balls. Place a ball in center of batter in each ramekin. Divide remaining batter among ramekins to cover filling.

5. Step5

   Bake for 12 to 15 minutes. Remove from oven and let stand for 5 minutes. Using a knife, loosen cakes from sides of ramekins. Invert onto dessert plates. Serve immediately topped with ice cream, if desired. Garnish with cocoa, if desired.
