Dark Chocolate Molten Lava Cake


I'm damn sure molten lava cake is everyone's favourite dessert and can easily found in many restaurants and hotels. We are all fond of the word dark,creamy,rich chocolate cake. Even though, nowadays we come across variations in lava cake but the old fashion molten lava cake with dark chocolate wobbling in the center is always the best.

Individual molten lava cakes are easy to make. The gooey dark and rich chocolate that flows once your fork hit the center of the cake melt in mouth which makes me think heaven just got into my palate. Serve with cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream on the top and impress your guest.



Ingredients

4 ounces unsalted butter
2 tbsp all purpose flour
5 ounces bittersweet chocolate
2 egg yolks
2 eggs
1/4 cup granulated white sugar
Pinch of salt


Methods

Preheat oven at 200'C or 390'F. Grease four ramekins with butter and lightly sprinkle with flour. Remove excess flour. Place the ramekins on a baking tray.

Using a hand mixer, beat egg yolks,eggs,salt and sugar in high speed for 7-8 minutes or until pale and creamy. Using a double boiler method, melt chocolate and butter.

Fold in the flour and egg mixture into the melted chocolate. Pour the batter into the prepared ramekins and bake for 16 minutes or until set. The center of the cakes will wobble. Remove from oven and let the cakes cool for 1 minute.

Cover the ramekins with serving plate and carefully turn over the plate. Stand for 10 seconds before carefully unmold the ramekins

Serve immediately topped with cream.
