GERBS FLOURLESS DARK CHOCOLATE LAVE CAKE

Dark Chocolate Lava Cakes are essentially tiny cakes that have a gooey chocolate center that spills out when you take a bite – aka, like lava spilling from a fisher in a volcano. They can be made in large batches, kept on the counter for a few days (if they make it) or better yet frozen and microwaved for a sophisticated delicious midnight snack.

HOW TO MAKE GERBS DARK CHOCOLATE LAVE CAKES

Grease 4-ounce ramekins and place them on a baking sheet OR dust 9 muffin pans Gerbs Natural Cocoa Powder (to prevent sticking). Silicone baking pans are best when making these lava cakes because they pop out and do not stick.
In a small mixing bowl, make your flax eggs by whisking/combining Gerbs Ground Flax Meal and water. Let stand/sit for 10-15 minutes to thicken.
Add Gerbs dark chocolate chip chunks and sunflower oil to a separate medium sized microwaveable bowl. Microwave for 1 minute and then whisk until chocolate mixture is smooth.

Add the melted chocolate mixture, applesauce, and Gerbs flax eggs to the dry mix and stir until combined.
Fill the ramekins or muffin wells ¾ of the way full.

Bake for 14-16 minutes 350 degree oven. The edges will be set but the center will still be soft and gooey. Remove the pan form the oven, set aside on drying rack.
