Air Fryer Lava Cakes

Step 1

In a large microwave-safe bowl combine the butter and chocolate. Be sure and cut the butter into smaller pieces and break the chocolate into smaller pieces. Microwave on high power for 60 - 90 seconds until the butter is completely melted. Whisk to combine the melted butter and chocolate.

Step 2

In a separate smaller bowl combine the eggs and sugar. Whisk until the mixture is looking frothy.

Step 3

Slowly stream the egg and sugar mixture into the melted butter and chocolate mixture. Stir with a spatula until completely combined.

Step 4

Sift the flour and salt into the bowl with the chocolate batter. Stir until no streaks of flour remain.

Step 5

Grease the ramekins and divide the batter evenly between the two.

Step 6

Place the ramekins inside the air fryer basket.

Step 7

Bake the lava cakes at 375 degrees F for 8-10 minutes, or until the cakes have puffed up and look just baked on top.

Step 8

Carefully remove the dishes from the air fryer basket.

Step 9

Allow the cakes to cool for a bit. Run a sharp knife around the edges of each dish. Invert the ramekins onto serving plates and gently let the cakes fall onto the plates. Top each cake and serve immediately.
