Description

Decadent chocolate lava cupcakes filled with a rich raspberry center, perfect for a romantic dessert or special occasion treat.


Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter
  • 6 oz semi-sweet chocolate, chopped
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 large egg yolks
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/8 tsp salt
  • 2 tbsp all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 12 fresh raspberries
  • 1 tbsp powdered sugar, for dusting (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C) and grease or line a 6-cup muffin tin.
  2. Melt the butter and chocolate together in a double boiler or microwave, stirring until smooth. Let cool slightly.
  3. In a mixing bowl, whisk together eggs, egg yolks, sugar, salt, and vanilla until light and thickened.
  4. Slowly pour the melted chocolate mixture into the egg mixture, stirring constantly.
  5. Sift in the flour and fold gently to combine.
  6. Spoon half the batter into the muffin cups. Place 2 raspberries in the center of each, then top with remaining batter.
  7. Bake for 12-14 minutes until the edges are set but centers are soft.
  8. Let cool for 1 minute, then carefully invert onto plates. Dust with powdered sugar if desired and serve warm.

Notes

  • Do not overbake; centers should remain gooey.
  • Can be made ahead and reheated briefly in the microwave.
  • Serve with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream for extra indulgence.
