Equipment

  • 6 ramekins or a large cupcake pan

Ingredients

  • 1 ½ cup all-purpose flour
  • ⅓ cup cocoa powder
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • ½ tsp salt
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1 cup cold coffee
  • 2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 2 tbsp vinegar
  • cocoa powder for prepping the ramekins
  • coconut oil or vegan margarin for prepping the ramekins

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 425°F. Grease and flour six three-inch round ramekins or the middle six moulds in a cupcake tin. Line the bottom with circles of parchment paper.
  • In a medium bowl, sift together the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda and salt. Add in the vegetable oil, cold coffee and vanilla extract. Once combined, evenly pour the vinegar over the top of the batter and mix to combine.
  • Disperse the batter into the prepared ramekins or cupcake tray until each one is about 3/4 full. Start to monitor the lava cakes in the oven after about 10 minutes. Bake for 12-13 minutes or until the edges are firm and the centre is puffed up slightly but still soft.
  • Serve immediately with ice cream or garnished with some powdered sugar and fruit.
