PRO TIPS FOR MAKING CHOCOLATE LAVA CAKE:

  • Use a high quality chocolate. This is the main flavor and you will taste the difference when using a better ingredient.
  • The bake time will change based on the size of your ramekins and your oven’s idiosyncrasies so it’s a good idea to do a test batch before you serve these at a dinner party.
  • Try adding a flavor you enjoy like orange zest, raspberry reduction or a hit of caramel.

Ingredients:

  • 4 dark chocolate Lindors
  • 120 grams plain flour
  • 120 grams caster sugar
  • 3 eggs
  • 2 egg yolks
  • 120 grams dark chocolate chips
  • 120 grams butter
  • Butter for greasing the dishes
  • 2 tablespoons cocoa powder 

Instructions:

  1. Preheat the oven to 200C / 180C fan. Generously butter the pudding dishes, and dust the insides with cocoa powder. Put into the fridge while you make the filling.
  2. Melt the butter and chocolate in a glass bowl set over simmer in water - don’t let the bowl touch the water beneath. Once fully melted, stir well and take it off the heat. Leave to cool for 5 minutes.
  3. Use an electric hand whisk to beat the sugar, eggs and egg yolks for around 5 minutes, until pale and fluffy. Sieve in the flour and mix together, then add in the chocolate mixture and whisk until mixed through. Divide between the dishes and press a chocolate Lindor into each one until it’s just covered with the mixture - you don’t want the chocolate to touch the bottom of the tin or it may stick and make them hard to turn out. Cook for 13 minutes, then - carefully loosen the edges with palette knife before turning out onto a small plate. Dust with icing sugar, then serve.
