Prep Time 10 minutes mins

Cook Time 10 minutes mins

Servings: 8 mini cakes

Course: cake, Dessert, Snack

Ingredients Method

Ingredients

  

• ½ cup cacao powder unsweetened
• ¼ cup granulated stevia sweetener or erythritol or regular sugar
• pinch of salt
• 1 teaspoon paleo baking powder
• 4 eggs
• ¼ cup coconut milk full fat is best!
• splash of vanilla extract
• ⅓ cup nondairy chocolate chips

Method

 

1. Preheat oven to 350°F and grease 8 muffin tins. In a large bowl, mix all ingredients except for the chocolate chips.
2. Once you have a batter, pour evenly into the 8 muffin molds. Add a sprinkle of chocolate chips to the center of each and lightly press into the batter so that they are covered.
3. Bake for about 10-12 min. or until they are cooked on the top but still jiggle slightly. You don't want to overbake these as you want a gooey lava center! Let cool before taking out of the muffin tin and topping with optional (but highly recommended) nondairy ice cream!
