Lemon Lava Cake

Ingredients

• 120 g White chocolate
• 60 g Butter
• 80 g Sugar
• 80 g Lemon juice
• 3 Eggs
• 60 g Flour
• Orange food coloring (Optional, added to provide color)
• Lemon zest (For finishing)
• Powdered sugar (For finishing)

Steps

1. 1

   Preheat the oven to 200 °C.

2. 2

   Melt the butter and white chocolate together. Stir until smooth.

3. 3

   Add the sugar and stir. The mixture may be somewhat difficult to blend smoothly before adding the lemon juice.

4. 4

   Add the lemon juice, then the eggs, and stir. The lemon juice should make the mixture smooth. If using, add the orange food coloring at this stage.

5. 5

   Add the flour and mix just until incorporated and the batter is smooth.

6. 6

   Divide the batter among molds with fully sealed bases to prevent leaks during baking.

7. 7

   Bake at 200 °C for 12 minutes.

8. 8

   When removed from the oven, sprinkle a little powdered sugar and lemon zest over the lava cakes. This finishing touch is primarily decorative.

Notes

The recipe is stated to make 3 to 4 lava cakes. The transcript specifies using molds with sealed bases and indicates that the powdered sugar and lemon zest are optional and primarily decorative. The method does not specify a cooling time or unmolding instructions.
