Notes
Use room temperature eggs and butter for a smoother batter. If you want a richer chocolate flavor, add a half teaspoon of instant espresso powder. For a twist, try adding chocolate chips, nuts, or a hint of orange zest. Store leftovers covered at room temperature for up to 2 days or refrigerate for up to 5 days. Reheat in the microwave for a soft, gooey texture. Enjoy warm with vanilla ice cream for a perfect treat!
