Molten Lava Cakes - Carob image

I'm always adapting chocolate recipes into carob recipes - the result of an allergy to cocoa! This makes a delicious, moist lava cake, like a brownie on the outside and full of fudgey gooey goodness on the inside.

Time 23m

Yield 4 individual mini cakes, 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

3/4 cup carob chips (sweetened)
1/2 cup margarine or 1/2 cup butter
1 cup icing sugar
2 eggs
2 egg yolks
6 tablespoons flour

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 425°F.
  • Grease four oven-safe custard cups and place all four on a baking sheet.
  • In a microwave-safe glass bowl, dump carob chips and margarine. Cook on high for 1 minute, and whisk until chips are completely melted and mixed with margarine.
  • Add whole eggs and egg whites and whisk.
  • Add icing sugar and stir.
  • Add in flour and stir.
  • Pour batter into custard cups. Using 1/2 cup dry measure scoop is helps make sure you get equal portions in each cup!
  • Bake for 12-14 minutes, until sides are firm but centres are still fairly soft. Remove from oven and cool for 3 minutes. Carefully run small spatula around edges of cakes to loosen, then invert cakes onto dessert plates. Shake custard cup gently to loosen cake onto plate.
  • If desire, sprinkle each cake with 1 teaspoons icing sugar and top with berries.
  • Serve warm and enjoy! For leftovers (if there are any!), reheat in microwave 20-30 seconds.
