Lava cakes for your valentine (or for yourself 😌)

I tested half the batch with almond flour, and half without any flour. They honestly ended up being super similar in texture - so you can make them however you prefer!!

RECIPE (adapted from my queen @lucymakes_ )
Makes 6 servings!
- 4oz salted butter
- 6 ounces of dark chocolate (I used guittard 63% dark chocolate chips)
- 2 whole eggs
- 2 egg yolks
- 1/4 cup of coconut sugar (you can also use regular sugar if you like!)
- Pinch of sea salt
- OPTION: 2 tbsp of flour. I split the recipe in half, and added 1 tbsp of almond flour to the batter! Like I said, it’s totally the same without flour!
Extra butter and cocoa powder to dust muffin tins with
- Preheat oven to 450 degrees, and prep your ramekins or muffin tins with. Butter and cocoa powder (I used a fine mesh strainer to dust my muffin tins).
- Melt butter and chocolate together in 30 second increments in the microwave.
- In a separate bowl whisk eggs, egg yolks, sugar and salt until well combined.
- Fold melted butter & chocolate into the egg mixture and combine.
- If opting to add flour, add here and carefully mix in!
- Pour batter into prepared tins, and place into oven! Depending on the dish you’re using bake times may vary, but I baked mine for 7 minutes. Cakes are ready when the edges are firm but the middles are still soft. Definitely keep your eyes on them so you don’t overcook them!
- Remove from oven and let them cool for a minute, then carefully flip pan to remove.
- Serve immediately with ice cream (we love @icecreamforbears !)
Hope you enjoy!! Also, extras can be reheated the next day for a few seconds and they still taste divine 🥰💖🩷💘🫶
