Description

A rich gluten-free lava cake featuring a molten white chocolate center and fresh raspberries, this elegant and indulgent dessert is perfect for special occasions or when you want to impress with a decadent treat.


Ingredients

Chocolate Mixture

  • 4 oz white chocolate
  • ¼ cup unsalted butter

Batter

  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 tablespoons sugar
  • 2 tablespoons gluten-free flour
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla extract

Additional

  • ½ cup fresh raspberries
  • Powdered sugar for garnish


Instructions

  1. Preheat and Prepare Ramekins: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease two ramekins well to prevent sticking.
  2. Melt Chocolate and Butter: In a heatproof bowl, gently melt the white chocolate and unsalted butter together until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
  3. Mix Eggs and Sugar: In a separate bowl, whisk the two large eggs with the sugar until the mixture becomes slightly thick and pale.
  4. Combine Wet Ingredients: Add the melted chocolate and butter mixture along with vanilla extract to the egg mixture, stirring thoroughly to create a smooth batter.
  5. Add Flour: Gently fold in the gluten-free flour, taking care not to overmix to preserve the batter’s light texture.
  6. Fill Ramekins: Pour the batter evenly into the prepared ramekins, filling each about three-quarters full.
  7. Add Raspberries: Place a few fresh raspberries in the center of each batter-filled ramekin, gently pressing them in slightly.
  8. Bake: Bake the ramekins in the preheated oven for 10 to 12 minutes until the edges are set but the centers remain soft and molten.
  9. Rest and Serve: Remove from oven and let the cakes rest for 1 minute. Then carefully invert each ramekin onto a plate to release the lava cake.
  10. Garnish and Enjoy: Dust with powdered sugar and garnish with additional raspberries or whipped cream if desired. Serve immediately to enjoy the molten center.

Notes

  • Serve the cake immediately to enjoy the molten white chocolate center at its best.
  • Optional garnishes include extra fresh raspberries or a dollop of whipped cream for added indulgence.
  • Ensure not to overbake to maintain the gooey lava core.
