Fit Chocolate Lava Cake

Ingredients

• 20 g Dark chocolate (melted)
• 30 g Cocoa powder
• 2 Egg whites (approximately 70g)
• 30 g Milk (dairy or plant-based)
• Sweetener (your choice of sweetener or sugar, to taste)
• Oil (for greasing the ramekins)
• Cocoa powder (for dusting the ramekins)

Steps

1. 1

   Melt the 20g of dark chocolate using a double boiler until smooth.

2. 2

   In a mixing bowl, combine the egg whites, cocoa powder, milk, melted dark chocolate, and your preferred sweetener.

3. 3

   Whisk the ingredients together until the batter is well combined and smooth.

4. 4

   Prepare two ramekins or small molds by coating them with a little oil and dusting with cocoa powder to prevent sticking.

5. 5

   Divide the batter evenly between the two prepared ramekins.

6. 6

   Cook in an air fryer at 160°C (320°F) for 8 minutes, or in a preheated oven for 10 minutes, until the edges are set but the center remains soft.

Notes

For a molten 'lava' effect, ensure you do not overcook the cakes. One commenter suggests that for a fully cooked cake, it may need up to 15 minutes at 180°C, but the original recipe is designed for a soft heart.
