Instant Pot Chocolate Lava Cake

Trex made this after some googling because we happened to have chocolate around the house and omg, so simple and so yummy!

Ingredients

  • 1 cup dark chocolate chips
  • 1/2 cup butter
  • 3 eggs
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 1/4 cup flour
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • mint leaves (optional)
  • raspberries (optional)

Directions

  1. Place chocolate chips and butter in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave for 30 seconds, remove from microwave and stir.
  2. Place back in the microwave for another 30 seconds and stir until smooth.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk eggs, sugar, flour, and vanilla together until smooth.
  4. Pour chocolate mixture into egg mixture and stir well to combine.
  5. Spray four 6-7-ounce ramekins with cooking spray.
  6. Fill each ramekin 2/3 of the way full with batter.
  7. Put steam rack in the bottom of the Instant Pot and add 2 cups of water.
  8. Place ramekins on the steam rack, placing 3 of the ramekins directly on the rack and one over the top and in the center of the 3 ramekins (as seen in photo above).
  9. Place lid on Instant Pot and place tab to “sealing”. Manually set the time to 8 minutes on “high” pressure.
  10. Quick release the pressure and carefully remove ramekins from Instant Pot.
  11. Serve with ice cream and add mint leaves and raspberries for garnish.
