Ingredients

For this delicious Lava Cake, you’ll need some basic baking ingredients. Here’s what you’ll need:

4 ounces (1/2 cup) unsalted butter, plus more for greasing the ramekins
4 ounces (1/2 cup) semi-sweet chocolate chips
2 ounces (1/4 cup) unsweetened chocolate, chopped
3/4 cup granulated sugar
3 large eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
Whipped cream or ice cream (optional)

Instructions

The first step to making this delicious dessert is to preheat your oven to 425°F. Grease your ramekins with butter and then sprinkle with a bit of sugar. This will help the cakes come out of the ramekins easily.

In a double boiler (or a heat-proof bowl placed over a pot of simmering water), melt together the butter, semi-sweet chocolate chips, and unsweetened chocolate. Stir until everything is melted and smooth. Remove from heat and set aside to cool slightly.

In a large bowl, beat together the sugar, eggs, and vanilla extract until light and fluffy. Slowly beat in the melted chocolate mixture until everything is well combined. Slowly sift in the flour, stirring until everything is well blended.

Divide the batter evenly among the greased ramekins. Place the ramekins on a baking sheet and bake for 12-15 minutes, until the edges are set and the center is still slightly jiggly. Remove from oven and let cool for 5 minutes.

Run a sharp knife around the edges of each ramekin and then invert onto a plate. Serve warm with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of ice cream, if desired. Enjoy!
