Was watching one episode of Ramsey’s kitchen and he was making this choc molten cake, where when you cut into the cake, melted choc ‘flows” out like lava and I was very intrigued.
Then I saw the recipe in a magazine and it was pretty simple: choc, sugar, eggs, flour and the overall process was not very complicated. Start to fin in 30minutes.
Filled up 3 big ramekins and 3 small ones. I didn’t grease the ramekins enough and some of the cakes actually stuck to the bottom of the ramekins so they didnt “pop” out nicely..
Texture wise, it was a 3 layer experience, the outer crust was a bit chewy, the inner part was quite soft and the middle was basically “melted choc’ and it did really ooze out when I cut into it.. cool
Taste wise, it was super sweet, even for me and I had to finish practically all of them. Also it was supposed to be served with vanilla ice cream and I believe the creaminess of the vanilla ice cream would have balanced out the sweetness of the cake. But I didn’t hv any ice cream so I don’t really know. I would make them again but with some changes. Things to remember the next time…
-Cut down sugar by 40% to 50% -Only cook it when i hv enough people to finish it, as it needs to be served fresh and hot. Does not taste good once in fridge and microwaved.. -Grease ramekins properly
