Chocolate Lava Cake Recipe

Molten chocolate cakes never fail to arouse the chocolate maniac that lives in every single one of us.

Yes. I believe that deep down, we all love chocolate.

'Cause why would you not love something that is smooth, sweet and mood-lifting?

And sometimes I feel like an exorbitant amount of chocolate. 

Well, by "sometimes" I mean every day.

So let's indulge in this classic french dessert - moelleux au chocolat, at the comfort of your own home!

Served with berries, cream and/or ice-cream, this cake is luscious.

Honestly, it should be illegal.

Recipe for Chocolate Lava Cake 

Makes 2 small cakes (approx. 3 inches diameter).

Ingredients:

• 75 g Chocolate (I used bittersweet chocolate!)
• 60 g Unsalted Butter
• 2 Eggs
• 70 g Sugar
• 50 g All-purpose Flour
• 1 tsp Rum*
• 1/2 tsp Coffee Powder*

(*optional)

Directions:

1. Preheat oven to 200°C; Grease ramekins with cooking spray/butter.
2. Melt chocolate and unsalted butter in a water bath. Set aside to melt.
3. In a separate bowl, whisk eggs, sugar and rum together.
4. Stir to help chocolate and butter melt completely. Then add into the egg mixture and mix well.
5. Combine coffee powder and all-purpose flour. Add to the egg and chocolate mixture in one go. Mix until well incorporated, do not over-mix. 
6. Pour batter into the greased ramekins and bake for 10 - 12 minutes.
7. Check to see if the cakes are ready at 10 minutes by pressing them gently. If they spring back a little, they're done!
8. Remove cake from oven and let them cool for at least 3 minutes.
9. Run a knife/spatula round the ramekin and flip the cake onto a plate.

Enjoy with someone you love, OR indulge on your own (why not?).
