• 1 cup Cake flour
• ¹⁄₂ cup Unsweetened cocoa powder
• 1 teaspoon Baking powder
• ¹⁄₄ teaspoon Salt
• ¹⁄₂ cup Unsalted butter
• 1 cup Granulated sugar
• 2 Eggs
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• ¹⁄₂ cup Whole milk
• 4 cup Semisweet chocolate
• ¹⁄₂ cup Heavy cream

Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease four ramekins.
2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the cake flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt.
3. In a separate large bowl, cream together the butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
4. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla extract.
5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, alternating with the milk, until just combined.
6. Divide the batter evenly among the prepared ramekins.
7. Place the ramekins on a baking sheet and bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are set but the centers are still soft.
8. While the cakes are baking, prepare the chocolate pudding by melting the semisweet chocolate and heavy cream together in a saucepan over low heat, stirring until smooth.
9. Remove the cakes from the oven and let them rest for 5 minutes.
10. Carefully invert each ramekin onto a plate, allowing the lava-style cake to release.
11. Serve the cakes warm, topped with the chocolate pudding and raspberry sauce.
12. To make the raspberry sauce, puree the raspberries in a blender or food processor until smooth. Stir in the powdered sugar.
13. Drizzle the raspberry sauce over the lava-style cakes and enjoy!
