Molten Lava Cake
Molten Lava Cake recipe! This cake is the perfect dessert for chocolate lovers with a crumbly, cake crust and molten, brownie batter-like center.
Servings 6 Small Cakes
Ingredients
- 6 ounces semisweet or dark chocolate chips
- 2/3 cup unsalted butter
- 4 large eggs
- 2/3 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup all purpose flour
For serving:
- Powdered Sugar
- Whipped cream or ice cream
- Fresh berries
- Mint leaves
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400˚F. Grease 6 ramekins with butter and line the bottom of each with a circle of parchment paper. Place the ramekins on a baking sheet.
- In a double boiler or microwave in 20 second increments, melt the chocolate chips and butter until smooth. Set aside and allow to cool for 15 minutes.
- In a large bowl, beat together the eggs and sugar until pale. Mix in the flour until smooth. Slowly fold in the cooled chocolate until combined.
- Pour the mixture into the prepared ramekins, 3/4 full. Bake in preheated oven just until the tops are barely set but still wobbly in center, about 13 minutes. Allow to cool for 5 minutes before inverting onto serving plates.
- Serve immediately with powdered sugar, whipped cream or vanilla ice cream, fresh berries, and mint leaves.
