What could be better than chocolate? A chocolate cake with a hidden heart of warm strawberry coulis that melts in your mouth, that's what! This Strawberry Chocolate Lava Cake is a true showstopper, transforming any regular day into a celebration. Simple to prepare yet impressive to serve, this dessert merges the rich depth of chocolate with the vibrant notes of strawberries, promising an irresistible treat for your taste buds.
Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Grease four ramekins and dust with cocoa powder.
In a microwave-safe bowl, melt 4 oz of dark chocolate and 1/2 cup of unsalted butter in 30-second intervals, stirring each time until smooth.
Stir in 1 cup of powdered sugar until fully incorporated.
Beat in 2 whole eggs and 2 additional egg yolks until well combined.
Gently fold in 1/3 cup of all-purpose flour until no lumps remain.
Divide half of the batter between the prepared ramekins. Spoon 2 tablespoons of strawberry coulis into the center of each and cover with the remaining batter.
Bake for 12-15 minutes until the edges are firm but the center is still soft.
Let cool for 1 minute, then invert onto plates.
Garnish with fresh strawberries before serving. Enjoy the molten magic!
