Nucolato Lava Cake
INGREDIENTS
- 1 large Egg

- ¼ cup Granulated Sweetener (e.g., monk fruit)
- 2 tablespoons Unsweetened Cocoa Powder
- 2 teaspoons Nucolato

STEPS
- Preheat oven to 395°F (200°C). Grease 2 small round molds/ramekins with butter, then dust lightly with cocoa powder.

- Add cocoa powder to the egg mixture and beat until just combined.
- In a microwave-safe bowl, melt chocolate chunks and butter (30-second intervals, stirring) until smooth and homogeneous.
- Gradually add the melted chocolate-butter mixture to the egg mixture, beating on low speed until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Pour half of the batter into each prepared mold.
- Place 1 teaspoon of Nucolato in the center of the batter in each mold.
- Cover the Nucolato with the remaining chocolate batter.
- Bake for 12-15 minutes at 395°F (200°C) until edges are set but the center is still molten.
- Carefully unmold or serve directly.
