A small, flourless chocolate cake made with only chocolate and one egg, baked in a ramekin.

Ingredients

  • 2 ounces semisweet chocolate chopped
  • 1 large egg yolk and white separated

Directions

  • Heat the oven to 350°F and grease a 10-ounce ramekin. Melt the chocolate in the microwave in 15-second bursts, or over a pan of simmering water. Let it cool a little.
  • Stir the egg yolk into the chocolate. In another bowl, beat the egg white for about 2 minutes, until soft peaks form.
  • Gently fold the egg white into the chocolate, keeping as much air in it as you can.
  • Pour it into the ramekin and bake for about 20 minutes, until the top is set. Let it cool briefly before eating.
