Description

These warm chocolate lava cakes are a delightful treat, perfect for a cozy night in or a special occasion. The rich, dark chocolate combined with the light brown sugar creates a decadent flavor that's hard to resist. I've been making these for years, and they always impress! The warm, gooey center is the best part, and they're surprisingly easy to make with the Thermomix®. Serve them with a dollop of cream for an extra touch of indulgence. They are best enjoyed warm, straight from the oven!

Ingredients (6 ingredients)

100 g butter
100 g dark chocolate
150 g light brown soft sugar
3 piece large eggs
0.5 tsp vanilla extract
50 g plain flour

Preparation (9 steps)

Prepare the molds

Preheat the oven to 200°C (180°C fan/gas mark 6). Generously butter six dariole molds or small basins and place them on a baking tray. This ensures the cakes release easily after baking.

Melt butter and chocolate

Thermomix® Setting

3 min/122°F/Speed 2 50

Add 100g butter and 100g chopped dark chocolate to the Thermomix bowl. Melt for 3 Min./50°C/Stufe 2. Ensure the chocolate and butter are fully melted and smooth.

Cool the mixture

Pour the melted chocolate mixture into a separate bowl and let it cool slightly for 15 minutes. This prevents the eggs from cooking when added in the next step.

Mix in sugar and eggs

Thermomix® Setting

10 sec/Speed 4

Add 150g light brown soft sugar to the Thermomix bowl. Mix for 10 Sek./Stufe 4 to combine. Then, add 3 large eggs, one at a time, mixing for 5 Sek./Stufe 4 after each addition. This ensures a smooth and even batter.

Add vanilla and flour

Thermomix® Setting

15 sec/Speed 3

Add ½ tsp vanilla extract and 50g plain flour to the Thermomix bowl. Mix for 15 Sek./Stufe 3. Ensure the flour is fully incorporated, scraping down the sides of the bowl with a spatula if necessary.

Combine mixtures

Thermomix® Setting

10 sec/Speed 3

Pour the cooled chocolate mixture into the Thermomix bowl with the egg mixture. Mix for 10 Sek./Stufe 3 until just combined. Do not overmix.

Divide and chill (optional)

Divide the mixture evenly among the prepared dariole molds or basins. You can now either put the mixture in the fridge or freezer until you're ready to bake them.

Bake the cakes

Bake for 10-12 minutes (or 16 minutes if baking from frozen) until the tops are firm to the touch but the middles still feel squidgy. The baking time may vary depending on your oven.
