Molten Lava Cake Recipe

For 2 persons, 3/4 cup size each (180ml)
Level: Easy
Prep time: 20 min
Cooking time: 13 min

Ingredients

    • 50 g bittersweet chocolate (1.8 oz), chopped
    • 60 g unsalted butter (2 oz)
    • 2 tablespoons caster sugar (28 g)
    • 1 egg, medium-sized
    • Pinch salt
    • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil (30 ml)
    • 1 teaspoon all-purpose flour (5 g)
    • 1 /2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract (2.5 g)

To prepare ramekins, extra butter and cocoa powder

For dusting, extra confectioners’ sugar

Directions

Preparation Butter and dust with cocoa powder two ramekins.

Make the batter

Melt chopped chocolate and butter in a double boiler or microwave.

In a mixing bowl, add in an egg, sugar, vegetable oil, vanilla extract, and salt. Stir until combined. I used canola oil today. Don’t use extra virgin oil for this recipe.

Add in melted chocolate and butter mixture and whisk until homogeneous.

Finally add in the flour and whisk to combine. Divide the batter evenly among ramekins.

Bake

Bake in the oven preheated to 425 degrees F. (220 C.)  for 13 minutes. The center of the cake should be soft.

To serve

Turn the ramekins out on a serving plate and wait for 10 seconds and then unmould. Dust with confectioners’ sugar and serve when hot.

Note

Strawberries, raspberries, and a scoop of vanilla ice cream go perfectly well with Molten lava cake.
