HOT CHOCOLATE SOUFFLE (MOLTEN LAVA CAKE)

MOLTEN LAVA CAKE ( makes roughly around 8 cakes depending on the ramekins you have)

Ingredients:

Dark Chocolate chips - 125 grams
Egg - 4 nos
Sofetened Butter - 4 tbsp
All purpose Flour - 60 gms
Castor Sugar - 1 cup
Vanilla Essence - 1 tsp ( optional)

Preparation:

Double boil the the choco chips and butter together till the chips melt.

Seperate the egg white and yolk. In one bowl add the yolks and the sugar and beat till creamy and pale in color. Add in the melted choco - butter and vanilla essence and whisk again. Then add in the flour and mix properly.

In another bowl add the egg whites and beat till stiff peaks are formed. Then add this to the flour-choco mix and with a spatula mix.

Rub the ramekins or small bowls with butter all over and dust it with flour. Then pour equal amounts into all 8 ramekins. make sure you pour in half only.

Bake in a pre-heated oven @ 180 C for 12-15 mins depending upon your oven settings. You will know its done when the outer top layer of the cake batter thickens and middle is soft and goovy. Take out and keep it to cool down completely. Run a knife on the sides of the cake slowly and invert to a plate. Powder the top with icing sugar and a scoop of vanilla ice cream (optional). When you cut on the side you wll the fluid inside oozing out slowly. Its not always you get oozing fluid. Sometimes it will be semi cooked and bit thick to flow. Some people prefers in the second way. Still the taste is divine.
Otherwise you can serve in the ramekins /bowl itself as shown in the pic below.
