Molten Lava Cakes- for two

This is the perfect solution for Valentine’s dessert for two!  Bonus, it’s gluten-free! Super bonus, it takes 10 minutes to put together and 10 minutes to bake!

Ingredients:

-2 tbsp butter

-1/3 cup sugar

-2 ounces semi-sweet chocolate

-1 large egg

-1 egg yolk

-1 pinch of salt

-3 tbsp gluten-free flour (almond or rice is what I prefer)

a little extra butter to coat ramekins and a little extra sugar to coat them

Preheat oven to 400°

Directions

  1. Butter ramekins thoroughly and dust with sugar.
  2. Melt the butter and sugar in 20-second increments in a microwave, stirring between each heat.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, sugar, and salt.
  4. Mix all the above ingredients.
  5. Add the flour, whisk just until combined.
  6. Bake for 10-12 minutes until a toothpick inserted ½ “ from the side of the ramekin comes out clean.
  7. Let sit for 10 minutes to cool.
  8. Invert and serve with whip cream, berries, or ice cream.
