Chocolate Lava Cake
"Gooey inside and firm outside. With basic ingredients like chocolate, sugar, butter, eggs and flour and a few ramekins (muffin tins work well too), you will be able to serve these in just 30 minutes."
NotesThere will be a little extra mixture left if using muffin tins. You may finish off the extra in a ramekin.
