Baking the Perfect Molten Lava Cake with Claire Saffitz | Dessert Person

I made them today : they cooked for 8 minutes in ramekins and I didn't have enough eggs so I used 3 egg yolks instead of 6.
They turned out perfect ! This is going to be my go to recipe for molten lava cake.

Hi Claire, could you share with us what you feed your hens to get the golden egg yolks? You hear so many things but just curious if you had any wisdom. Also interested in knowing what breed of chicken you have as well.

I have a receipe that makes just one. 😉

I’ve heard dominos uses GMS powder and xanthum gum also no eggs for their cake. Here in India, I tried it and it was easily the most unappetising cake I’ve had. Wouldn’t eat it even for free unless I was starving 😅 it could be the branch or not idk but homemade chocolate lava cake tastes far superior to those chemicals loaded Crap 😂

I thought this was a Bon appetit channel but saw the name and it’s your full name written. Well nice to see you back I’ve subscribed 😋😋

I made this recipe and it tasted really nice! I used muffins silicone tray. I should have baked less than 6 min though…

I was positive she was going to absolutely decimate domino’s for their lava cake 😂

finalmente uma receita da claire que eu ja comi!! mande o petit gateau pra dentro!!

We call those petit gateau in Brazil

Nice

Love the new series! If I just listened to the audio, I might have thought that their tour guide was Jake Johnson 😂

hey claire ! is there any way i can substitute the olive oil with melted unsweetened butter instead and what would the measurements be? will it still be similar or would it differ slightly?

Anyone have an idea what the recipe adjustment is when using muffin tins?

I would like to bake a single "giant" lava cake for a birthday. I would make a dome shaped cake with the two quart pan I have. I noticed in the video that the recipe makes 4 cups of batter. I am wondering how it would work to multiply the recipe by 1.5 to get 6 cups of batter. Would this recipe work for a "giant" lava cake, or should the recipe be modified? Also, I would use safflower oil rather than olive oil because we prefer that oil for health reasons. There are recipes for "giant" lava cakes online, but I prefer Claire's recipe for two reasons: the flour is fully mixed in which appears to result in smooth chocolate lava and we like using oil rather than butter. I note that other "giant" lave cakes take about 50 to 60 minutes to cook.

I’m doing a baking event on Tuesday.. the theme is “gooey” and this cake looks to fit the bill!
Do you think I’d be able to transport the cakes by car or are they very delicate?

Humble Claire here with her chickens🙃😵‍💫

god looks decadent

Hi, Claire! I'm not sure if you'll be back to read comments, but I'll take a chance. So, these lava cakes,you 😍 😅😮

I think Carl Casper would disagree on this method. 😂 Love the videos. Yes, a future of pizza would be awesome.
