Chocolate lava cake with peanut butter centre
The magic ingredient your chocolate lava puddings have been missing all your life? Standing right there in your pantry. Trust us. Preheat the oven to 180°C. Melt 100 g roughly chopped dark chocolate and 100 g cubed butter in a double-boiler, stirring, until smooth. In a separate bowl, beat 2 free-range eggs, 2 free-range egg yolks and 100 g sugar until light and fluffy. Fold in 100 g cake flour, then add the chocolate mixture and mix. Chill for 15 minutes. Half-fill 4 greased ramekins with the mixture, then place 1 T peanut butter in the centre of each ramekin. Top with the remaining chocolate mixture. Bake for 8 minutes, then turn out onto serving dishes. Sprinkle with smoked salt before serving. The mixture can also be made in advance and chilled, but would then require an extra 3 minutes baking time.
