Today I is a bit eager to cook, lunch was pizza and dinner was chicken curry with soy sauce vege stir fry, and I decided to make chocolate lava cake for dessert after clearing up dinner. And with all that work, I now have enormous elephant-like legs. Hahahaha.

170g butter
170g chocolate (I used Van Houten baking chocolate)
4 eggs
5 tbsp sugar
1 tbsp flour
pinch of vanilla powder
pinch of bicarbonate soda
Melt the butter and chocolate together using double boil.
Mix flour, sugar, vanilla powder and bicarbonate soda together. Add an egg each time and beat till consistent before adding another egg.
Add the butter-chocolate mix.
Fill the muffin pan till 3/4 full, bake at 200 degrees Celsius for 6 minutes.
The first batch I baked at 230 degrees Celsius, for 8 minutes and they turned out to be cake-like, no lava centre!

See? No oozy sink-in centre. Bummer.
But with each trial and error comes a brilliant find. For I have found! A brownie recipe! HAHA. Or at least, an almost flourless chocolate cake recipe. I think the 1 tbsp of flour won't make much of a difference if it were to be left out.
So the second batch I decided to bake at 200 degrees Celsius, for 6 minutes. Lava cake a success! Oozing out chocolatey goodness! But Other Half was already full with a cake from the first batch, he could only manage a spoonful of the mini cake from the second batch.

Needless to say I finished the rest of the cake, of course ;)
