Ingredients – What You’ll Need
For the Lava Filling:
-
Dark Chocolate – 20 grams
-
Butter – 20 grams
-
Cocoa Powder – ½ teaspoon
For the Cake Batter:
-
All-Purpose Flour – 110 grams
-
Cocoa Powder – 30 grams
-
Baking Powder – 1 teaspoon
-
Powdered Sugar – 90 grams
-
Vanilla Essence – 1 teaspoon
-
Milk – 110 ml
-
Oil – 40 ml
How to Make It – Step-by-Step
Step 1: Prepare the Lava Filling
In a small bowl, melt the dark chocolate and butter together until smooth (you can use a microwave or a double boiler). Stir in the cocoa powder and mix well. Set aside to cool slightly.
Step 2: Mix the Wet Ingredients
In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, oil, and vanilla essence. This will be your wet mixture.
Step 3: Combine the Dry Ingredients
In another large bowl, sift together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and powdered sugar. Sifting helps keep the batter light and lump-free.
Step 4: Make the Batter
Gradually add the wet mixture into the dry ingredients, stirring until smooth and lump-free. You should have a thick, silky batter.
Step 5: Prepare the Molds
Grease your ramekin molds or cupcake tins with butter and dust with a little cocoa powder. This prevents the cake from sticking and adds a rich finish.
Step 6: Assemble the Cakes
Spoon half of the cake batter into each mold. Add a small spoonful of the chocolate filling in the center. Then cover with the remaining batter.
Step 7: Bake
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). Bake the cakes for 10 to 12 minutes, just until the edges are firm but the center is still soft. Don’t overbake — the gooey middle is the highlight!
Step 8: Cool & Serve
Let the cakes cool for about a minute. Then gently invert them onto serving plates. Dust with powdered sugar or serve with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for extra indulgence.
