Chocolate Fondant

This chocolate fondant also known as molten lava cake is amazing you can’t beat a gooey, oozing layer of melted chocolate! Its very additive and can be a perfect way to end the evening of some rich spicy dishes. It feeds about 4 but if you want more just double the ingredients. My previous attempts haven’t given the the correct ooziness in the centre, ie what makes a fondant a fondant [it means melting after all]. By freezing the chocolate first before putting it in the middle it basically it’s colder, it takes longer to cook and you get that ultimate ooze.

Ingredients

  • 5 tablespoons coconut oil melted, plus extra for brushing
  • 125g self-raising flour (you can use gluten free)
  • 3 tablespoons cacao powder
  • 100g coconut sugar
  • 150ml almond or oat milk
  • 4 squares of dark chocolate (Frozen overnight)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 180°C fan.
  2. Brush four 8cm ramekins with melted coconut oil and set aside.
  3. Put the flour, cacao porder coconut sugar and a pinch of salt into a large bowl.
  4. Whisk to remove any lumps, then add the coconut oil and almond milk and mix again until smooth.
  5. Divide the mixture evenly between the ramekins. Place 1 square of frozen chocolate on top of each
    ramekin and push down using your finger until they reach the middle.
  6. Smooth the mixture over the top to cover the chocolate.
    Place the ramekins on a baking tray and bake in the oven for 15 minutes until risen and the top is set but the fondants wobble if gently shaken - you want the centre to be gooey.
  7. Remove from the oven and while they're still hot, place a plate on top of each ramekin, turn them over and gently flip them out on to the plate. Serve immediately to ensure they are oozing inside.
