Best 7 Paula Deens Molten Lava Cake Recipes

MOLTEN LAVA CAKES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
• Butter 8 (6-ounce) ramekins and sprinkle each with about 1/2 teaspoon sugar.
• In a saucepan combine butter, cinnamon, cayenne, nutmeg, and chocolate over low heat until melted and smooth; stir frequently. Cool slightly.
• In a large bowl whisk together flour, confectioners' sugar, eggs and yolks, vanilla extract and almond extract until creamy. Add melted chocolate to the batter and whisk together.
• Pour into prepared ramekins.
• Bake cakes until the top is stiff and cracked and the edges are dark, about 12 to 14 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool for 5 minutes. Loosen the edges of the cake with a small paring knife then invert onto plates while warm.

CHOCOLATE MOLTON LOVE CAKE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Grease 12 baking rings with spray and arrange them over a greased and lined baking sheet.
• Mix the butter and chocolate in a stainless steel bowl over a double boiler. Melt until a smooth texture forms. Put the bowl over a double chiller.
• *Cook's Note: This is like a double boiler except the bottom bowl is filled with ice. Add the sugar and eggs to a medium bowl and whisk to combine. Slowly fold the eggs into the chocolate and butter mixture, then fold in the flour.
• Fill the baking rings 1/2-full with the batter. Bake in the oven until the sides have set but the center is glossy, about 6 minutes. Remove from oven, let cool a few minutes, then lift the baking ring off each cake.
• For assembly, add 1 to 2 tablespoons Creme Anglaise to each serving plate. Add butterscotch sauce to plates using a fancy design. Do the same with the Raspberry Coulis. Add a piece of Pistachio Tuile. Transfer the molten cakes from baking sheet to the plates on top of the sauces. Drizzle chocolate sauce on top and garnish with berries.
• In a medium saucepot pot over medium heat, add the cream, vanilla bean and seeds, sugar and egg yolks. Stir with rubber spatula directly touching the bottom of the pan keeping the mixture moving without sticking. Cook the mixture on medium heat for 15 minutes until the mixture tightens. Strain and chill over an ice bath until smooth, thick and cold.
• Add the berries and syrup to a blender. Puree, then strain and pour into a squeeze bottle.
• Mix sugar and water together in a pot. Cook on high heat until thick and the sugar has completely dissolved. Cool.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Mix the wet ingredients together in a bowl. Mix the dry ingredients together in a separate bowl.
• Fold the wet with dry, a little at a time, until incorporated. Pour evenly on top of a silpat lined baking sheet. Bake for 5 minutes. Allow to cool, then break into pieces.
• Add the chocolate, water and butter to a double boiler. Stir until melted then cool and drizzle on top of cakes.

PAULA'S VOLCANO CAKE

Steps:

• For the cream mixture:
• Beat ingredients (the softened cream cheese, 1 stick butter and sugar) together with an electric mixer. Set aside until ready to use.
• Cake:
• Preheat oven to 350 °F. Grease a 13 by 9 by 2-inch cake pan.
• Line bottom of greased pan with coconut flakes. Sprinkle pecans on top of coconut. Set aside.
• Follow directions on back of box to prepare cake. Beat for approximately 2 minutes, using an electric mixer. Fold in bite-sized candy. Pour into cake pan. Evenly space dollops of cream mixture on top of the cake. When the cake cooks, the cream will sink down to the bottom. This will be your "volcano" of flavor. Place in oven for 40 to 45 minutes. While cake is still hot spread the glaze evenly over the cake.
• For the glaze:
• In a small saucepan, melt the 4 tablespoons of butter over medium-low heat. Whisk in cocoa powder and add milk until you get a thin consistency. If glaze is too thick, add more milk. While bringing the butter and milk mixture to a boil, whisk in confectioner's sugar and almond extract. Glaze should be thin. Remove from the heat and allow to cool before using.

MOLTEN LAVA CAKES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 °F. Grease 6 (6 oz) custard cups. Melt chocolates and butter in the microwave or in a double boiler. Add flour and sugar to chocolate mixture. Stir in eggs until smooth. Stir in vanilla and orange liquor. Divide batter evenly among custard cups. Bake for 14 minutes. Edges should be firm but the center will be runny. Run a knife around the edge to loosen and invert onto dessert plate.

MOLTEN LAVA CAKE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 200-210°C (400°C). Grease or butter ramekins. Make sure you use a lot of butter/oil if you want to invert it onto a plate, otherwise it will stick.
• Melt the butter and chocolate together and mix. Pour into a big bowl.
• Sieve in the flour and sugar and whisk.
• Add the eggs and continue to whisk. If you like a more cake-y texture, keep on whisking until it turns lighter.
• Pour into ramekins. It took up around 8 ramekins for me, but it really depends on the size.
• Bake for around 10 minutes. It's best to keep an eye on it just to make sure it doesn't overcook. If it does, it's just a really moist cake, good but not quite as satisfying.
• Serve with ice cream and strawberries. Or banana. A good idea can be to chop fruit beside it and use the filling as a sort of fondue.
