Description

This quick and easy chocolate lava cake recipe is the perfect dessert for chocolate lovers!


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1/4 (56g) cup butter
  • 3 oz. (85g) chocolate (semi-sweet or dark)
  • 1 egg
  • 1 egg yolk
  • 1/4 tsp vanilla extract
  • 2 tbsp (25g) granulated sugar
  • 2 tbsp (25g) light brown sugar
  • 2 tbsp (40g) all-purpose flour
  • pinch of salt

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven at 425F and grease two ramequins
  2. Melt your chocolate and butter together using a bain-marie (or if you are in a rush microwaving but do small intervals to avoid burning the chocolate)
  3. Beat the egg, egg yolk, vanilla and sugar until you obtain a pale foamy mixture
  4. Gently fold the melted chocolate and the flour into the egg mixture (make sure you do not over-mix)
  5. Separate the batter between the two ramequins and bake for 10-12 minutes (or until the sides are firm and the centres are soft)
  6. Let the ramequins sit for 1 minute before inverting them on individual plates (you can also serve them directly in the ramequins)
