Serving: Serve warm for the best molten center experience. Pair with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for a classic combination.
Storage: Batter can be prepared ahead of time and refrigerated in the ramekins for up to 24 hours. Add 1–2 minutes to the baking time if chilled.
Variants
Salted Caramel: Add a dollop of salted caramel sauce in the center of the batter before baking.
Peanut Butter Core: Spoon a small amount of peanut butter into the center for a nutty surprise.
Espresso Kick: Mix 1 teaspoon of espresso powder into the melted chocolate for a mocha twist.
White Chocolate: Use white chocolate for a lighter and sweeter molten cake.
Gluten-Free Option: Substitute all-purpose flour with almond or oat flour for a gluten-free treat.
FAQ
Q: Can I use cupcake molds instead of ramekins?
A: Yes, but ensure they are sturdy and non-stick. Adjust baking time as cupcake molds may be smaller.
Q: How do I know when the cakes are done?
A: The edges should be firm, but the center should still jiggle slightly when shaken. Overbaking will result in less molten centers.
Q: Can I freeze these cakes?
A: Yes! Freeze the unbaked batter in the ramekins. Bake directly from frozen, adding an extra 2–3 minutes to the baking time.
Q: What type of chocolate is best?
A: Use high-quality semisweet or dark chocolate with at least 60–70% cocoa for the best flavor and texture.
