Molten Chocolate Cake
Author/ Συγγραφέας: Katerina
Recipe type/ Τύπος Πιάτου: Dessert
- Cooking spray
- 1 cup all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting
- 142 gr. / 5 oz. chocolate (I used 55% cocoa but I am sure any chocolate will do fine)
- ½ cup unsalted butter
- 4 large eggs
- 1 cup sugar
- ½ tsp vanilla extract
- Whipped cream, for serving (optional)
- Fresh berries, for serving (optional)
- Fruit coulis, for serving(optional)
- Caster sugar (definitely what I have used)
- Preheat oven to 175 C / 350 F.
- Spray 8 4-ounce (or 112 gr.) ramekins with cooking oil or margarine and dust with flour, tapping out the excess.
- In a small saucepan over low heat, melt the chocolate with the butter.
- In a medium bowl, beat the eggs and the sugar until light and fluffy.
- Stir in the flour and the chocolate mixture.
- Transfer the batter to the ramekins and bake.
- Now here is the trick.
- I baked them for 15 minutes, but you should see which time is appropriate for your oven.
- If you want lava cakes then 15 minutes is the max.
- If you want normal cakes then bake for 20 minutes.
- Run a knife around the sides of the chocolate cakes and invert them onto serving plates.
- Top with either one of the above choices and serve them immediately so as to have the melting effect.
