1
Preheat the oven to 180C/160C Fan/Gas 4. Put the butter, brown sugar, chocolate and coffee into a pan. Heat gently for 3-4 mins, stirring constantly, until melted and glossy. Transfer to a bowl and leave to cool for 10 mins.

Divide ¾ of the chocolate batter between 4 ramekins. Add 1tbsp peanut butter to each, then top with the remaining batter.
