Ingredients
  

  • 1.25 cup unsalted butter adds richness and keeps the texture soft
  • 0.94 cup unsweetened cocoa powder provides deep chocolate flavor
  • 0.63 cup all-purpose flour gives structure without firmness
  • 0.31 teaspoon salt balances sweetness and enhances cocoa
  • 5 large eggs create body and custardy texture
  • 2.5 cups granulated sugar sweetens and stabilizes the batter
  • 1.25 teaspoons vanilla bean paste adds warmth and aroma
  • powdered sugar optional, for a light decorative finish

  6. Slowly pour in the melted butter while mixing, stopping once the batter comes together smoothly. mix
  7. Scrape the bowl well and stir once by hand, then transfer the batter into the prepared baking dish. assemble
  8. Place the baking dish into the larger pan and carefully pour in hot water until it reaches halfway up the sides. assemble

Notes

This dessert is best when the center is still warm and molten, the kind of chocolate treat that makes everyone pause after the first bite.
