Take bowl and add the sweetener and the cocoa to it.
Mix it properly and ensure that there are no lumps in it.
In a separate bowl beat the egg lightly and then add it to the cocoa mixture.
Add the baking powder, salt, cream and the vanilla essence and whisk more.
Now oil the tin in which you plan to bake the cake. Pour your batter in the tin.
You can either bake at 350 degrees Celsius for 15 mins or use the microwave.
I baked the cake for 1 min in the microwave. After the minute is up check the cake. If it is wobbly at the top, micro for another ten seconds.
You can have the cake right away. But please be a little careful as the bowl will be very hot from outside.
I had some Amul Probiotic Icecream in my freezer, which I was going to put to good use.
So you can either top the cake with whipped cream or ice cream or have it just like that.
But since we are making a molten lava cake I decided to use the ice-cream. While the cake is still hot add a scoop of ice cream to it.
Now use a knife to loosen the edges of the cake. Place a plate on the bowl and turn it upside down.
Tap a few time if the cake is refusing to budge. Your molten lava cake is ready to eat.
You now have ice cold ice cream smooched below hot chocolate cake. Use a spoon to break into the cake and the ice cream will ooze out of it.
And don’t think just gobble it up before somebody asks for a bite.
