Ingredients

RED VELVET LAVA CAKES

  • 1 Quest Chocolate Double Chocolate Chip Cookie
  • 4 eggs, room temperature
  • 1 tbsp zero calorie sweetener
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • Pinch sea salt
  • 4 oz sugar free chocolate chips
  • 5 tbsp melted butter, slightly cooled
  • 2-3 drops red food gel coloring

Method

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 F. Prepare 4 ramekins with non-stick spray and place them onto a baking sheet.
  2. Cut the cookie into small pieces and place them onto a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  3. Bake for 5 minutes and then place in the refrigerator to cool completely.
  4. Meanwhile, whisk the eggs with the vanilla extract until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
  5. Transfer the cookie pieces, sweetener and salt to a nutribullet and blend until fine crumbles form.
  6. In a microwave safe bowl, melt the chocolate and butter together until smooth, let cool slightly.
  7. Add the cookie ingredients and the melted chocolate to the egg bowl and stir until combined.
  8. Stir in the food gel. Distribute the batter between the four ramekins and bake for 15-19 minutes.
  9. The lava cakes are done when they pull away from the side but still wet and giggly on top.
  10. Flip the cakes onto serving plates and dust with cocoa powder. Serve with ice cream if desired.
