Directions
- Preheat oven to 450°. Butter and lightly flour four 6-ounce ramekins, dumping out any excess flour
- Over a double boiler, place chocolate chips and butter into a medium size heatproof bowl and melt to combine, about 15 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside
- In the bowl of a stand mixer, beat eggs, egg yolks, sugar and salt until thickened and slightly pale, about 3-4 minutes
- Fold the melted chocolate and flour mixture into the egg mixture until combined
