The ingredients needed to make Molten lava cake:
- Prepare 1 stick (4 ounces) unsalted butter

Dig into a rich and delicious Chocolate Molten Lava Cake and cue the ooey-gooey centers. The molten chocolate lava cakes are rich, decadent, moist, robustly chocolaty, sweet enough but not too sweet. I used Trader Joe's Dark Chocolate Bar and recommend using your favorite dark chocolate bar. The molten, barely-set chocolate that oozes from the center is my idea of heaven.
Instructions to make Molten lava cake:
- Preheat the oven to 450°. Butter and lightly flour four 6-ounce ramekins. Tap out the excess flour. Set the ramekins on a baking sheet.
- In a double boiler, over simmering water, melt the butter with the chocolate. In a medium bowl, beat the eggs with the egg yolks, sugar and salt at high speed until thickened and pale.
- Whisk the chocolate until smooth. Quickly fold it into the egg mixture along with the flour. Spoon the batter into the prepared ramekins and bake for 12 minutes, or until the sides of the cakes are firm but the centers are soft. Let the cakes cool in the ramekins for 1 minute, then cover each with an inverted dessert plate. Carefully turn each one over, let stand for 10 seconds and then unmold. Serve immediately.
Mist them lightly with non-stick spray. Then melt chocolate and butter together (I like to do this in the microwave, but a double boiler would work well too!), and stir in the powdered sugar. Molten chocolate cakes — also known as chocolate lava cakes — are rich individual chocolate cakes with oozing molten centers. The original recipe was created by master chef Jean-Georges Vongerichten fortuitously, when he pulled a chocolate cake out of the oven before it was done and discovered the center to be enticingly warm and pudding-like. Spray four custard cups with baking spray and place on a baking sheet.
