Ingredients<\/span><\/h2>
  • 7 oz semisweet chocolate chips (55% cocoa content, approximately 1 cup + 3 tablespoon)<\/span><\/li>
  • 4 oz unsalted butter (1 stick)<\/span><\/li>
  • \u00bd tsp sea salt (or \u00bc tsp for less saltiness)<\/span><\/li>
  • 1 tablespoon vanilla extract (or bourbon\/rum)<\/span><\/li>
  • 2.3 oz white sugar (about \u2153 cup)<\/span><\/li>
  • 2 large eggs<\/span><\/li>
  • 2 egg yolks<\/span><\/li>
  • 0.7 oz all-purpose flour (about 2 tablespoon, see GF substitutions below)<\/span><\/li>
  • Extra butter and cocoa powder to dust ramekins<\/span><\/li>
  • Confectioner\u2019s sugar and berries for serving<\/span><\/li><\/ul>

    Instructions<\/span><\/h2>
    1. Preheat your oven to 400\u00b0F (205\u00b0C).<\/span><\/li>
    2. Generously butter four \u00bd-cup ramekins and dust them with cocoa powder. Set aside.<\/span><\/li>
    3. In a large microwave-safe bowl, combine the butter, chocolate chips, and sea salt.<\/span><\/li>
    4. Melt in the microwave in 30-second increments, stirring in between, for about 60\u201390 seconds. Alternatively, use a double boiler for melting.<\/span><\/li>
    5. Stir the sugar and vanilla extract into the warm butter-chocolate mixture.<\/span><\/li>
    6. Whisk in the eggs and egg yolks until well combined. The mixture will be thick and slightly \u201cgloopy.\u201d<\/span><\/li>
    7. Gently whisk in the flour until fully incorporated.<\/span><\/li>
    8. Pour the batter into the prepared ramekins, filling them no more than \u00be full.<\/span><\/li>
    9. If not baking immediately, cover the ramekins with plastic wrap and freeze or refrigerate until ready.<\/span><\/li>
    10. Place the ramekins on a baking tray and bake in the preheated oven. Bake for about 11 minutes in metal ramekins or 12 minutes in glass\/porcelain ramekins. For frozen cakes, refer to the recipe notes for adjusted baking times.<\/span><\/li>
    11. Remove from the oven and let the cakes rest for about 30 seconds to 1 minute.<\/span><\/li>
    12. Carefully turn the cakes out onto serving plates using a towel or cloth napkin (be cautious as the ramekins will be hot). Tap the top of each ramekin with a spoon to loosen the cake, then gently lift off the ramekin.<\/span><\/li>
    13. Dust with confectioner\u2019s sugar and serve immediately with raspberries or strawberries, or other toppings of your choice.<\/span><\/li>
    14. Butter and dust 7 to 8 cupcake cavities with cocoa powder.<\/span><\/li>
    15. Pour about 70\u201372 g of batter into each cavity (about \u00be full).<\/span><\/li>
    16. Bake in the preheated oven for 7\u20138 minutes.<\/span><\/li>
    17. Once baked, place parchment paper over the cakes, followed by a half-sheet baking pan (upside down).<\/span><\/li>
    18. Flip the cupcake tray and baking pan together. Carefully remove the cupcake tray to reveal the cakes on the parchment paper.<\/span><\/li>
    19. Use a thin metal spatula to lift each lava cake and transfer to serving plates.<\/span><\/li><\/ol>

      Enjoy the indulgent experience of these rich, gooey chocolate lava cakes, perfect for any special occasion or as a delightful treat!<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
