Lava Cake - first (and second) attempt!

My co-worker gave my boyfriend a cook book, so I browsed through it and decided on making some Lava Cakes! They were super easy to make. Started with some delicious chocolate, I choose Lindt.

 Here is 2 and a half bars worth of chocolate!

 Melted it with butter

 Added the rest of the ingredients - I forgot the vanilla...

 Buttered and sugared ramekins - then filled them up!

 Baked them in the oven... ooo they look so yummy!

 

Ok so here's where I went wrong... I over baked them, so they weren't actually gooey on the inside. 

As you can see in the picture, they didn't last long regardless! 

Next time they will be even better!!

***Update: I made them again with shorter time and less expensive chocolate. They were even better then the first batch I made! However, I'm still not satisfied with the results, so I will be making them again with a different recipe.

Here is what it looked like. Ooey Gooey insides! And sooo scrumptious.
