Creating Mini Chocolate Lava Cakes for Two is straightforward and fun. Follow these instructions for a perfect result:

1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and grease two ramekins generously with butter or cooking spray.
2. Melt Chocolate and Butter: In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the unsalted butter and semi-sweet chocolate chips. Heat in the microwave for about 30 seconds. Stir and continue heating in 15-second intervals until melted and smooth.
3. Whisk Eggs and Sugar: In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs and granulated sugar until well combined and slightly frothy.
4. Combine Mixtures: Pour the melted chocolate mixture into the bowl with the egg mixture. Stir until fully combined.
5. Add Flour and Flavorings: Gently fold in the all-purpose flour, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
6. Divide the Batter: Evenly distribute the batter between the two prepared ramekins.
7. Bake: Place the ramekins on a baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for 12-14 minutes. The edges should be firm, but the center should remain soft.
8. Cool: Remove from the oven and let them cool for about 5 minutes. This allows the cakes to set.
9. Serve: To serve, carefully invert each ramekin onto a plate. Gently lift the ramekin off, allowing the cake to slide out. Dust with powdered sugar if desired.
