Ingredients

  • 1 cup dark chocolate chips (dairy-free)
  • 1/4 cup coconut oil
  • 1/2 cup almond milk (or any plant-based milk)
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 cup cocoa powder
  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • Pinch of salt

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease four ramekins.
  2. Melt the chocolate: In a microwave-safe bowl, combine dark chocolate chips and coconut oil. Heat in the microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring in between, until melted and smooth.
  3. Mix wet ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together almond milk, vanilla extract, and melted chocolate mixture until combined.
  4. Combine dry ingredients: In another bowl, mix flour, cocoa powder, powdered sugar, baking powder, and salt.
  5. Combine all: Gradually add the dry mixture to the wet mixture, stirring until just combined. Do not overmix.
  6. Fill ramekins: Pour the batter evenly into the prepared ramekins, filling them about 3/4 full.
  7. Bake: Place the ramekins in the preheated oven and bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are firm but the center is still soft.
  8. Cool slightly: Allow the cakes to cool for 1-2 minutes before serving.
  9. Serve: Carefully invert the ramekins onto plates, and serve immediately. Enjoy your warm Vegan Chocolate Lava Cake with a scoop of dairy-free ice cream or fresh berries!
