Equipment

Ingredients
 

  • 3 oz unsalted butter
  • 4 oz semi sweet chocolate bar (60% cocoa)
  • 2 eggs
  • 3.5 tablespoon sugar
  • 1.5 tablespoon all purpose flour
  • ¼ teaspoon baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
  • pinch of salt

To serve

  • vanilla ice cream, raspeberries, choclate shavings

Instructions
 

  • Add butter and chocolate to a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave on high in 30 seconds increments stirring until the chocolate is fully melted. Set aside.
  • Beat eggs with an electric beater until frothy. Add sugar and beat till dissolved. Add the melted chocolate and butter mixture to the beaten eggs and stir to combine.
  • Add the baking powder, vanilla extract, a pinch of salt and all-purpose flour. Stir until well combined.
  • Preheat Air fryer at 375F. Grease 4 4oz ramekins with butter. Fill the ramekins with the batter until ¾th full. Place the ramekins in the Air fryer basket and bake for 7 minutes for a gooey center and around 9 minutes for a thick center.
  • Remove the ramekins from the Air fryer. The ramekins will be really hot. Use oven mitts or a folded kitchen/dish towel to lift the ramekins. Allow to cool for 2 minutes.
  • Now, gently run a knife around the cake to loosen it and invert it onto a plate. Serve immediately with ice cream and berries with chocolate shavings. Or use whipped cream and berries on top.
