Beat eggs, egg yolks and sugar in a medium mixing bowl with an electric mixer on high for 5 minutes. Beat in flour and melted chocolate until combined. Divide batter between prepared ramekins.
- Place ramekins on a baking sheet. Bake for 15 minutes or until sides of cakes are firm but centers are soft. Do not overbake.
