- In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs, egg yolks, monk fruit sweetener, and vanilla extract until pale and frothy
- Combine the melted chocolate mixture with the egg mixture and fold gently
- Sift in the almond flour, cocoa powder, and salt, then fold until just combined
- Divide the batter into the ramekins and bake for 10 to 12 minutes until the edges are firm but the center is soft

Notes
For a dairy-free version, substitute butter with avocado oil or coconut oil.
Check for doneness at 9 minutes to ensure a molten center.
