Prepare the Ganache Center: 1. Chop the dark chocolate into small pieces and place in a heatproof bowl. 2. In a small saucepan, heat the milk and cream until it just starts to simmer. 3. Pour the hot mixture over the chocolate and let it sit for a minute, then stir until smooth. 4. Add the butter and mix until fully incorporated. 5. Let the ganache cool, then refrigerate overnight until firm. 2. Make the Lava Cake Batter: 1. Preheat your oven to 200°C (390°F) and grease individual ramekins or muffin tins. 2. Melt the dark chocolate and butter together using a double boiler or microwave in short bursts, stirring until smooth. 3. Whisk the eggs, egg yolks, and sugar. 4. Gently fold the melted chocolate mixture into the eggs. 5. Sift in the flour and add a pinch of salt. Fold until just combined. 3. Assemble & Bake: 1. Fill each ramekin halfway with the lava cake batter. 2. Place a chilled ganache ball in the center, then cover with more batter until about ¾ full. 3. Bake for 30 minutes until the edges are set but the center remains soft. 4. Let the cakes rest for 1-2 minutes, then carefully unmold onto a plate. 4. Serve: Enjoy immediately with a dusting of powdered sugar, fresh berries, and a scoop of vanilla ice cream! 🍫✨
