Grease and sugar-coat eight 6oz ramekins. Place chocolate, butter, chili powder, red pepper and cinnamon into a double boiler set up. Heat and stir until chocolate is nearly completely melted.
Remove from heat and continue to stir until chocolate is smooth and glossy. Whisk cocoa powder, flour and egg yolks into the warm chocolate mixture. Set aside.
Place 6 egg whites and cream of tartar in the bowl of a stand mixer. Beat, using the whisk attachment, until whites form stiff peaks. Slowly beat in sugar. Gently fold stiff egg whites into chocolate mixture in three parts, folding until just incorporated.
Divide batter evenly into the ramekins. Place two (2) lava balls in each ramekin, submerging in the cake batter.
