Ingredients
Lava Cakes
- 100 g butter
- 1 pack dark chocolate drops
- 2 eggs
- 2 egg yolks
- 1 pack caster sugar
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 2 Tbsp flour
- 150 ml cream
To Serve
- 150 ml cream
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 200°C. Grease 4 ramekins (measuring about 10cm in diameter).
- Melt butter and chocolate in a small pot on low heat. Stir to combine, remove from heat and set aside. Alternatively, melt in microwave for 20 second bursts and stir to combine.
- In a medium bowl, add eggs, egg yolks, sugar and salt. Use an electric beater or whisk to beat until pale and fluffy, about 4 minutes. Using a spatula, gently fold in the chocolate mixture. Gently fold in the flour, until combined.
- Divide mixture evenly between ramekins. Bake for 15-17 minutes, until cooked but still gooey in the middle.
- While lava cakes bake, add cream to a medium bowl and use electric beaters (or a whisk) to beat until fluffy, about 2-4 minutes.
- Cut around the edge of ramekins and flip each lava cake into a bowl, or simply eat straight from the ramekin! Top with a dollop of whipped cream.
