Indulge in these rich and gooey chocolate lava cakes infused with the delightful flavor of Irish cream. Perfect for a special occasion or a cozy dessert night.
Preheat your oven to 450°F (230°C) and grease four ramekins with butter.
Ensure the ramekins are well-greased to prevent sticking.
Melt the butter and chocolate together in a microwave-safe bowl, stirring every 30 seconds until smooth.
Use high-quality chocolate for the best flavor.
In a mixing bowl, beat the eggs, egg yolks, and sugar with an electric mixer until thick and pale.
Whipping the eggs well incorporates air, giving the cakes a light texture.
Fold the melted chocolate mixture into the egg mixture gently.
Be gentle to maintain the airiness of the batter.
Add the Irish cream and flour to the mixture, folding until just combined.
Avoid overmixing to keep the batter light.
Divide the batter evenly among the prepared ramekins.
Fill each ramekin about three-quarters full.
Bake for 8-10 minutes, until the edges are set but the centers are soft.
Keep an eye on the cakes to avoid overbaking.
Let the cakes cool for 5 minutes, then invert onto plates to serve.
Run a knife around the edges of the ramekins if needed to release the cakes.
