Chocolate Lava Cake
Yield: 1 serving
Serving Size: 1 cake
Prep Time: 5 min
Cook Time: 2-20 min*
Ingredients
- 1 egg, room temp
- 3 tablespoons cacao powder
- 1 tablespoon non-dairy milk of choice (we used lite canned coconut milk)
- 2 teaspoons coconut oil or butter, melted
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons powdered sugar substitute (such as Swerve), or pinch stevia, to taste
- ¼ teaspoon baking powder
- Pinch sea salt
Method
1. Preheat oven to 350°F. if using oven. Omit this step if using microwave.
2. Whisk ingredients together. Coat a mug or ramekin with cooking spray. Pour batter inside. Bake for 20 minutes, or until set.
3. If microwaving, heat for 1 minute and 30 seconds, or until set. If you prefer a gooey center, undercook your cake so the center is giggly and the outside perimeter is firm (about 15 minutes in oven and 1 minute in microwave). Let cool for 5 minutes before inverting onto a plate.
Optional Drizzle
Melt ½ tablespoon coconut oil or butter with ½ tablespoon almond butter. Stir in ½ teaspoon cacao powder and 10 vanilla stevia drops. Drizzle on top.
