Ingredients
- 150 grams Dark chocolate (vegan)
- 120 ml Unsweetened almond milk
- 60 ml Coconut oil
- 125 grams All-purpose flour
- 30 grams Cocoa powder
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 100 grams Granulated sugar
- 60 grams Silken tofu
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) and lightly grease four ramekins with a bit of coconut oil, then set them aside.
Step 2
In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the dark chocolate and coconut oil. Heat in the microwave in 30-second increments, stirring between each, until the chocolate is completely melted and smooth. Allow to cool slightly.
Step 3
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt.
Step 4
In a food processor or blender, blend the silken tofu until smooth and creamy. Add the almond milk, sugar, and vanilla extract, then blend again until well mixed.
Step 5
Pour the blended tofu mixture into the bowl with the dry ingredients, then add the melted chocolate mixture. Gently fold together until just combined and batter is smooth.
Step 6
Divide the batter evenly among the prepared ramekins. Place the ramekins on a baking sheet.
Step 7
Bake in the preheated oven for about 10-12 minutes. The edges should be firm, but the center should still be soft.
Step 8
Let the cakes cool in the ramekins for 5 minutes before gently running a knife around the edges to help remove them.
Step 9
Invert the cakes onto serving plates and serve immediately for that perfect molten center.
