- 200g dark chocolate bittersweet 70%
- 200g unsalted butter
- 4 whole eggs
- 4 egg yolks
- 20 gm Stevia
- 100g yes you can chocolate orange cake mix
Preparing the mould
- You will need a ramekin with a 2-3 inch base and a or a cake ring of 4

- non stick mould would be ideal, however if not, line the mould on
- all sides with parchment paper
Method

- Melt the butter and dark chocolate together over a double boiler till it is completely smooth
(To make a double boiler)
- Place a saucepan full of water on the stove. When the water
starts simmering, place your bowl of chocolate and butter
over this making sure the heat is not too high)
- When the butter and chocolate mixture has cooled down to
room temperature, add your eggs and egg yolks, then whisk
till they're combined.
- Add your stevia and sift in your orange chocolate mix flour to avoid lumps. Fold this gently with a spatula to keep the batter light and airy.
- Pour the batter into your moulds and leave in fridge for 30 mins and bake at 180 degree Celsius for close to 10 minutes. Every oven will slightly vary so try what suits your oven
- When the surface is smooth and looks set the fondant is ready, this would still be wobbly on the centre. That’s the lava we are looking for.
- Serve straight out of the oven with some vanilla ice cream!
