Ingredients

Nonstick cooking spray, for the ramekins

1/3 cup dulce de leche 

4 tablespoons salted butter 

2/3 cup powdered sugar, plus more for topping 

1 large egg plus 1 large egg yolk 

1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract 

1/4 cup all-purpose flour 

Vanilla ice cream, for serving 

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Spray two 6-ounce ramekins generously with cooking spray and place on a baking sheet.
  2. Microwave the dulce de leche and butter together in a medium microwave-safe bowl until the butter is melted, about 1 minute. Whisk until smooth. Stir in the powdered sugar until well blended. Whisk in the egg and yolk, then add the vanilla. Stir in the flour until you have a smooth batter. Divide between the prepared ramekins.
  3. Bake until the edges of the cakes are firm but the centers are still soft, 11 to 13 minutes. Let stand for 1 minute, then run a butter knife around the edges of the cakes and invert onto individual plates while still warm. Sprinkle with powdered sugar and serve with the ice cream.

Just finished devouring the cake. Yes, it's sweet but nothing like  a good spoonful of whipping cream to balance it out.  This is a keeper!.
