1. Preheat oven to 375F.

2. Lightly butter 8 (3/4 cup) ramekins. Lightly coat with sugar. Place on a baking sheet.

3. In a double boiler, bring water to a simmer. In the top of the double boiler, place the butter and 6 1/2 ounces chocolate. Slowly stir until the chocolate is melted.

4. In a large bowl, whisk the yolks and 1/4 cup sugar. Whisk until smooth and slightly thickened. Stir in the flour.

5. Ladle a small amount of melted chocolate into the egg mixture. Whisk until its combined. Repeat until everything is mixed together.

6. In a medium bowl, combine egg whites and 1 tablespoon sugar. Whip together on medium speed until soft peaks are formed.
