It's not the DCL recipe but you might want to try this one:



Thomas Keller's Molten Chocolate Cake

4 Oz imported semi-sweet chocolate, finely chopped
1+ 1/2 Oz unsweetened chocolate, finely chopped
10 T. unsalted butter, softened
1/2 C. sugar
3 large eggs
1/2 C. plus 2 t. all-purpose flour
3/4 t. baking powder
1+ 1/2 T. unsweetened cocoa powder
Vanilla ice cream or vanilla-flavored whipped cream, for serving

Lightly butter six 1 C. ramekins or custard cups; set aside. Place the semisweet and unsweetened chocolate in the top of a double boiler or in a bowl set over a saucepan of hot water over low heat. Stir occassionally until the chocolate melts; remove from the heat.

When the chocolate is smooth, stir in the butter and the sugar until smooth. Add the eggs, flour, baking powder and cocoa. Beat with an electric mixer at medium high speed until the mixture is pale and has a thick, mousse-like consistency, about 5 minutes. Fill the ramekins 1/2 full, cover each with plastic wrap. Freeze for at least 3 hours.

Just before serving time, preheat the oven to 375 degrees F, with a rack in the center. Bake the cold desserts until the outer edges of the tops are set, but the centers are still moist and shiny, usually 10 to 11 minutes. Invert each portion onto a serving plate and serve warm, with a small scoop of ice cream or a spoonful of whipped cream. Alternately, serve directly from the ramekins.
