Ingredients

• 200 grams dark chocolate (70% cocoa)
• 150 grams unsalted butter
• 150 grams granulated sugar
• 3 large eggs
• 2 egg yolks
• 50 grams all-purpose flour
• 1 tablespoon cocoa powder (for dusting ramekins)
• 200 grams frozen or fresh raspberries
• 40 grams powdered sugar
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F) and grease four small ramekins with butter. Dust the inside with cocoa powder and tap out any excess.

Step 2

Melt the dark chocolate and unsalted butter together in a heatproof bowl set over a pot of simmering water, stirring until smooth. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.

Step 3

In a separate bowl, whisk the granulated sugar, large eggs, and egg yolks together until pale and frothy.

Step 4

Slowly pour the melted chocolate mixture into the sugar and egg mixture, whisking constantly, until combined.

Step 5

Gently fold the all-purpose flour into the mixture until just incorporated. Be careful not to overmix.

Step 6

Evenly divide the batter among the prepared ramekins, filling each about 3/4 full.

Step 7

Place the ramekins on a baking tray and bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are set but the center remains soft and molten.

Step 8

While the cakes bake, make the raspberry coulis: In a small saucepan, combine the raspberries, powdered sugar, and lemon juice. Cook over medium heat until the raspberries break down and the mixture becomes thick, about 5 minutes.

Step 9

Press the raspberry mixture through a fine mesh sieve into a bowl to remove the seeds, creating a smooth coulis.

Step 10

Once the cakes are done baking, remove them from the oven and let them rest for 2-3 minutes. Run a knife around the edges to loosen them, then carefully turn them out onto plates.

Step 11

Serve the warm chocolate volcanoes with a drizzle of raspberry coulis and a dusting of powdered sugar if desired. Enjoy!
