In a medium heatproof bowl set over a saucepan of simmering water (or in a microwave-safe bowl, microwaving in 30-second intervals), melt the unsalted butter and chopped bittersweet chocolate together. Stir until smooth and fully combined. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.

In a separate large bowl, whisk together the whole eggs, egg yolks, granulated sugar, and vanilla extract until light in color and slightly thickened, about 2-3 minutes.

Divide the batter evenly among the four prepared ramekins. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are set and the centers are still slightly jiggly. The cakes should have a firm outer crust but a molten interior.

While the cakes are baking, prepare the Labubu decoration. Melt the white chocolate. In a small bowl, whisk together the powdered sugar and milk to form a thin glaze. Divide the glaze into several small bowls and tint each with a different bright gel food coloring.
