Chocolate Lava Cake

Made these for hubby's birthday last week :)

Ingredients:

100g cooking chocolate/dark chocolate - cut into small cubes
100g butter - cut into small cubes
2 eggs
50g caster sugar
20g self raising flour

Directions:

1. Preheat the oven at 180c.

2. Melt the chocolate and butter using either the microwave or a double boiler (I use the former btw - microwave in 10-15 seconds interval until it melts)

3. Next, beat the eggs and sugar till the mixture turns pale and frothy.

4. Pour the melted chocolate and butter into the egg mixture and stir in the flour. Mix everything evenly using a spatula.

5. Grease your ramekins with butter and pour the mixture into the ramekins, filling each 3/4 full.

6. Bake at 180c for about 9-10 mins.

7. Once it's cooked, let it cool for a few minutes and then gently loosen the edges with a spoon and invert the cakes onto the serving plate. 

8. Decorate with some icing sugar and/or vanilla ice cream and it's done!!

It's deliberately undercooked as it's supposed to be runny in the middle, hence the name
