  • 1/2 cups Butter
  • 1 cup Powdered Sugar (1/2 cup)
  • 2 whole Eggs
  • 2 whole Egg Yolks

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 425 degrees.

  2. Spray 4 custard cups with Pam and place on cookie sheet.

  3. Microwave chocolate and butter in large bowl on high for about 1 minute, until butter is melted. whisk until chocolate is also melted.

  4. Stir in sugar until well blended. Whisk in eggs and egg yolks. Stir in flour.

  5. Divide between cups.

  6. Bake 13-14 minutes until sides are firm and center is soft. Let stand 1 minute. (I would do 11 minutes just to make sure david is happy. I don’t let them stand.)
