Molten Lava cakes

I have tried these cakes at Chili's and a few other restaurants. When I saw Paula Deen's Molten Lava Cakes, I had to try them. They were really good and simple to make. I just wish I would have had a package of Dream Whip to whip up, instead of the ice cream.

Ingredients:
*6 (1-ounce) squares bittersweet chocolate
*2 (1-ounce) squares semisweet chocolate
*10 tablespoons (1 1/4 stick) butter
*1/2 cup all-purpose flour
*1 1/2 cups confectioners' sugar
*3 large eggs
*3 egg yolks
*1 teaspoon vanilla extract
*2 tablespoons orange liqueur (I used 1 tsp. orange extract)
Directions:
*Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.
*Grease 6 (6-ounce) custard cups. Melt the chocolates and butter in the microwave, or in a double boiler. Add the flour and sugar to chocolate mixture. Stir in the eggs and yolks until smooth. Stir in the vanilla and orange liqueur. Divide the batter evenly among the custard cups. Place in the oven and bake for 14 minutes. The edges should be firm but the center will be runny. Run a knife around the edges to loosen and invert onto dessert plates.

Getting ready to put the chocolate & butter in the microwave.
