This molten choco lava cake is as easy as it gets.
It uses just 6 basic ingredients: dark chocolate, all purpose flour, butter, milk, sugar and baking powder. The dark chocolate gives it that rich, intense flavour while the small amount of flour keeps the centre molten and gooey. Everything gets mixed in one bowl, then poured into any heat safe container and it cooked over salt at the bottom of a kadhai for just 20 minutes. There’s no need to wait, you can dig in straight away while it’s still hot. Top with some powdered sugar, a little flaky salt if you like and enjoy the warm, gooey, chocolatey goodness, it’s just so, so good ♡
