CHOCOHOTOPOTS

This is like a lava cake.....

1 stick + 1 TBL real butter
4 ounces Bakers semisweet chocolate
2 eggs
3/4 C superfine sugar (regular sugar is ok)
3 TBL flour
1/4 tsp mint extract (optional, only if you like mint and chocolate)

4 (2/3/ to 1 C capacity) ramekins OR 2 (2C capacity) ramekins (baking dish)
In Microwave or over a double boiler melt the chocolate and the butter(Use the extra 1TBL of butter to butter the ramekins

Melt it slowly 30 seconds at a time to it wont burn
In another bowl, mix the eggs, sugar, and flour with a hand whisk. Beat in the cooled chocolate mixture. Divide the mixtures between the buttered ramekins. Bake for 20 minutes at 400 degrees. Do not over bake. They are done when the top begins to crack, underneath will be gooey. Eat directly out of ramekin or invert on a plate. Can be served warm and its really great with vanilla ice cream and/or strawberries, raspberries. Very rich, yummy treat!
