1. Preheat oven to 425°F. Butter 6 (6-ounce) custard cups or soufflé dishes. Place on baking sheet.

Raspberry Sauce: Mix 1 package (10 ounces) frozen raspberries in juice, thawed, and 1/2 teaspoon McCormick® Raspberry Extract until well blended. Refrigerate until ready to serve.

Flavor Variations: Prepare as directed, omitting raspberry extract. Or use 1 teaspoon McCormick® Pure Almond Extract, McCormick® Pure Orange Extract or McCormick® Ground Cinnamon or 1/2 teaspoon McCormick® Pure Peppermint Extract in place of the raspberry extract.

Make Ahead: Prepare chocolate batter up to 10 hours ahead of time. Pour into prepared custard cups. Cover with plastic wrap. Refrigerate. Let stand at room temperature 30 minutes before baking.
