Cooking Time:

< 15 min

Ingredients:

150 g dark chocolate, melted
230 g LANCEWOOD® Medium Fat Plain Cream Cheese, at room temperature
1 extra large egg(s)
1 extra large egg yolk(s)
30 ml castor sugar
5 ml vanilla essence

Method

Spray 4 x 8 cm in diameter ramekins generously with non stick spray.
Use an electric beater and beat the cream cheese into the melted chocolate until smooth.
Beat the egg, egg yolk, sugar, vanilla and dissolved coffee together. Mix into the chocolate mixture.
Sift the flour into the chocolate mixture and mix in a little at a time. Spoon into the prepared ramekins.

Air fryer:

Place in the air fryer basket and air fry for 6 – 8 minutes at 175°C.
Test after 6 minutes by inserting a wooden skewer into the cake – if it comes out slightly wet it is ready.

Oven baking:

Preheat oven to 195°C.
Bake for 12 -15 minutes.
Insert a wooden skewer after 12 minutes. If it comes out slightly wet it is done.
The tops should be set and the inside slightly wobbly. Otherwise bake for a further 3 -5 minutes.
