How to Make Molten Chocolate Cakes

  1. Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Grease and flour six 6-ounce ramekins.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together the melted butter, eggs, vanilla extract, and hot water until smooth.
  4. Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
  5. Divide the batter evenly among the prepared ramekins.
  6. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are set and the center is still slightly soft.
  7. Let cool for a few minutes before inverting the cakes onto plates.
  8. Serve immediately with vanilla ice cream or warm cherry pie filling.
