Chocolate Molten Lava Cake
 |
| Chocolate Molten Lava Cake served with Whipped Cream and Strawberries |
Then I saw a recipe in Kraft's Food and Family (free) magazine, and at the time I had all the ingredients on hand. I decided to give it a try and made 6...we were hooked!!! The recipe is good for 4 cups, so if you want to make more, adjust the proportions accordingly.

| Look at that gooey center of rich chocolatey goodness! |
The recipe can be found here along with a how-to video. If you want to receive such magazines for free, just sign up in their webpage.
To make sure I will not lose this recipe, I have included the recipe here, as adjusted accordingly:
Ingredients:
6 squares (1 square is 1 oz) BAKER'S Semi-Sweet Chocolate
3/4 cup (1-1/2 stick) butter
1-1/2 cups powdered sugar
3 eggs
3 egg yolks
9 Tbsp. flour
3/4 cup thawed COOL WHIP Whipped Topping
Procedure:
PREHEAT oven to 425°F. Butter four 3/4-cup custard cups or soufflé dishes. Place on baking sheet.
MICROWAVE chocolate and butter in large microwaveable bowl on HIGH 1 min. or until butter is melted. Stir with wire whisk until chocolate is completely melted. Stir in sugar until well blended. Blend in eggs and egg yolks with wire whisk. Stir in flour. Divide batter among prepared custard cups.
BAKE 13 to 14 min. or until sides are firm but centers are soft. Let stand 1 min. Carefully run small knife around cakes to loosen. Invert cakes onto dessert dishes. Serve immediately, topped with whipped topping.
UPDATE: This chocolate molten lava cake was tried and posted about by Zee, complete with her rave review and a beautiful photo.

ReplyDeleteHi anonymous,
ReplyDeleteI cannot vouch for other brands. Maybe you can as long as they are the same weight. :)
manang, do u know how to make chocolate monster cake? do u have that recipe? thanks...
ReplyDeleteHi Manang, I just found your website this week. I'm really enjoy reading all your recipes especially the hopia, I cannot wait your next blogs.
ReplyDeleteHi ellen,
ReplyDeleteSorry I have no idea how to make that one. I googled it at mukhang masarap yung sa godiva.
Hi anonymous!
Welcome to my site! I do hope you will have fun trying some recipes here.
Hi Manang! I tried out this recipe and it turned out awesome! I loved it and I will definitely bake this cake next time! hehehe
ReplyDeleteI used a different recipe for the first time and it was crap kaya my Ebie told me to check out your site for this recipe!
My creation is posted here and I linked you for the recipe (if you don't mind).
Thanks again Manang!
WOW!! mukang masarap...gonna try this at home this weekend :)
ReplyDeleteI suggest to eat it while its hot with vanilla ice cream on the side :) Sarap ng combination ng cold ice cream with the hot chocolate bursting from the cake :)
Hi Anonymous,
ReplyDeleteThat's a good idea! Now why haven't I thought of that???...
looks so mouthwatering, yummy
ReplyDeleteHi Manang,
ReplyDeleteCan you please help me with the amount of semi sweet chocolate. I am in the Philippines , i don't think we have that brand of chocolate here. I just would like to ask the weight/amount of chocolate i need. You said 6 squares. May i ask the weight please. Hope you can help me. Thank you very much- Katrina
Hi manang , what can u recommend na madaling iluto and masarap for a family gathering ? thanx :)
ReplyDeleteHI Anonymous,
ReplyDeleteSana mas specific...ulam ba o dessert? Anyway, usually for American gathering, beef pares plus pandelimon de patatas plus mashed potatoes plus chocolate cake (for my hubby) and something like boston cream pie (for the non-choco lovers)or custard cake (make-ahead). Kung Pinoy, matrabaho ang mga usual handa (lam mo na, chop chop ng rekado), pero kung gusto mo madaling handa, roast chicken (or adobo, pwede make ahead, initin lang), kanin, make-ahead na leche flan or custard cake, broiled fish with tomato salsa.
Hope I adequately answered your question!
Hi Manang,
ReplyDeleteIm so excited to try this recipe, it looks yummy but can i use muffin pan rather than souffle dish? thanks..
Hi Anonymous, I would think using muffin pan will make it hard for you to remove the chocolate cakes from them. I strongly recommend individual ramekins with the same shape as I used here. The glass Pyrex ramekins are quite cheap.
ReplyDeleteSalamat, Manang. Galing mo talaga!
ReplyDeletegood morning Manang, do you have recipe for caramel lava cake? Can you post it po, thank you.
ReplyDeleteSorry, michelle, I don't. I noticed, though, that there are tons available on the internet. Hope you find one that works for you! :)
