Mini Flourless Chocolate Cakes

These cakes baked in a ramekin are a perfect dessert for two… or one – sometimes they are just too good to share!  Extremely moist, chocolaty, and delicious, this flourless recipe yields an extra fudgy version of rich chocolate cake.  As an added bonus, they are gluten free!  Pair with a scoop of vanilla ice cream, berries, and/or a chocolate ganache.  Oh, and don’t forget to take a picture because they’re super cute!

 2 tbsp coconut oil or butter
 2 tbsp Dutch processed cocoa powder (may substitute with unsweetened cocoa powder and a pinch of baking soda)
 1 tbsp Greek yogurt or sour cream
 ¼ tsp vanilla extract
 pinch salt
 3 tbsp sugar
 1 large egg

Directions

1

Preheat oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit.

Grease two ramekins. Dust the bottoms with cocoa powder or line them with a round of parchment paper to prevent the cake from sticking.

3

Melt chocolate chips and coconut oil together in a bowl. Stir until smooth.

4

Add cocoa powder, sour cream, vanilla extract, salt, sugar, and the egg. Mix until smooth.

5

Divide batter between the two prepared ramekins.
