Hey y'all! Hope you are doing well. Today I am sharing my chocolate mint molten lava cakes. This is one of the easiest and quickest recipes and to top it off it only uses one bowl.
I made a video showing how I make it. You can find that here.
To start add 1 stick of butter and 4 oz of Andes Crème de Menthe candy (about 25) to a microwave safe bowl.
Next heat them in the microwave in 30 second intervals until it is completely melted. Be sure and heat it in intervals so the chocolate doesn't burn.
Now add in 1 cup of powdered sugar and mix well. It will be very thick.
Then add in 2 eggs and 2 egg yolks and mix in well. The batter will be nice and shiny.
Next add in 4 tablespoons of all purpose flour and mix well. The batter should be a little thicker than cake batter. It is that quick and easy to make.
Now line the cupcake pans and fill them. You can use regular or jumbo just be sure and line them. It is so much easier to get them out and they look nicer. I like to use a measuring cup to fill them evenly.
Now I bake them in my air fryer convection oven at 350 degrees for 6 minutes and then turn bake 5 more minutes (Your baking time may vary depending on the appliance you are using) If you are using a jumbo muffin pan I bake them at 350 degrees for 6 minutes and then turn and bake them for 6 more minutes and then turn down to 300 degrees and bake for 2 minutes.If you want more lava cook them less time. If you want less lava cook them more time but if you cook them too long you won't have any lava at all but they will still taste amazing.
Now they are all done and let them cool for 2 minutes in the pan.
Then carefully place them on a serving dish and take off the liner. Then dust them with powdered sugar or chocolate sauces or whatever topping you like.
