Ingredients

Scale
  • 1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 1/4 cup white chocolate chips
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter (1 stick)
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 large egg yolks
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/3 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/3 cup pistachio flour or finely ground pistachios
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
  • Powdered sugar for dusting
  • Chopped roasted pistachios
  • Optional: warm cream or vanilla ice cream for serving

Instructions

  1. Melt the Chocolate & Butter: In a double boiler (or microwave-safe bowl), melt chocolate chips, white chocolate chips, and butter until smooth. Stir gently.
  2. Whisk Eggs & Sugar: In a large bowl, whisk eggs, yolks, sugar, and vanilla until light and foamy.
  3. Combine & Fold in Pistachio: Slowly mix the chocolate mixture into the egg mix. Fold in flour, pistachio flour, and salt until just combined.
  4. Fill Ramekins & Bake: Grease 4 ramekins or muffin cups. Divide the batter evenly. Bake at 425°F for 11–13 minutes until edges are set but centers jiggle.
  5. Plate & Serve Warm: Let cool 1 minute, then flip onto plates. Dust with powdered sugar, sprinkle chopped pistachios, and drizzle with cream or add a scoop of ice cream.

Notes

  • Ensure not to overbake to keep the gooey center.
  • Can substitute pistachio flour with finely ground almonds for a different flavor.
  • Serve immediately for the best experience.
