Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 120 grams Dark chocolate (sugar-free)
- 100 grams Unsalted butter
- 2 large Eggs
- 2 large Egg yolks
- 80 grams Granulated sweetener (such as erythritol or stevia blend)
- 50 grams Almond flour
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- Cooking spray
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 220°C (430°F). Prepare four ramekins by lightly coating them with cooking spray. If desired, dust the interior with additional almond flour to ensure easy release.
In a small saucepan or a microwaveable bowl, melt the sugar-free dark chocolate and unsalted butter together over low heat, stirring occasionally, until smooth. Set aside to cool slightly.
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, egg yolks, and granulated sweetener until the mixture becomes light and slightly frothy.
Pour the melted chocolate and butter mixture into the egg mixture, whisking continuously to combine thoroughly.
Add the almond flour, vanilla extract, and salt to the chocolate-egg mixture, gently folding until all ingredients are well integrated and the batter is smooth.
Divide the batter evenly among the prepared ramekins, ensuring that each is about three-quarters full.
Place the ramekins on a baking tray and bake in the preheated oven for 8 to 10 minutes, until the edges are firm but the center remains soft and jiggly.
Remove from the oven and let the cakes rest for 1 minute before gently running a knife around the edges to loosen. Invert each ramekin onto a serving plate and carefully lift off.
Serve immediately, and enjoy the rich, molten centers that flow from this sugar-free chocolate delight.
