There is nothing more satisfying on a chilly winter's day than to slide that spoon over warm chocolate lava cake and seeing that molten chocolate running out of the center.
Makes 2
Ingredients
80g Dark chocolate pellets (or chopped chocolate block)
50g unsalted butter
50g Castor sugar / icing sugar
1 egg
1 egg yolk
Pinch of salt
17g Plain flour
Cocoa powder for dusting
Method
Preheat the oven to 200°c or 180°c fan force.
Butter 2 x ramekins and lightly dust with cocoa powder. In a microwaveable bowl place chocolate and butter and melt for 30 seconds, continue for 10 second burst while mixing with a silicone spatula in between. In a stand mixer bowl with a whisk attachment, place the egg, egg yolk along with the castor/icing sugar and whip until triple the volume. Once done, fold in the chocolate then fold in the flour and divide into the 2 moulds. Place the moulds onto a baking tray and bake for 8-9 minutes. Allow to cool for 2 minutes and de-mould onto a serving plate. Sift cocoa powder over the top and serve with either triple cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
