Resep: Matcha (Green Tea) Molten Lava Cake Recipe

Ingredients

• 200 g White Chocolate (good quality, chopped into pieces)
• 100 g Unsalted Butter (softened, plus extra for greasing ramekins)
• 50 g Powdered Sugar (plus extra for dusting and for coating ramekins)
• 30 g All-Purpose Flour (sifted)
• 5 g Matcha Powder (about 2 teaspoons, high‑grade culinary grade)
• 2 Large Egg (room temperature)
• 0.5 tsp Vanilla Extract (optional, pure extract)

Instructions

1. Prepare Ramekins

   Lightly butter each ramekin, then dust with a little flour, tapping out excess. This ensures the cake releases easily after baking.

   Time: PT5M

2. Melt White Chocolate and Butter

   Place chopped white chocolate and butter in a heat‑proof bowl over simmering water (double boiler) or melt in 30‑second intervals in the microwave, stirring between intervals, until smooth.

   Time: PT5M

3. Combine Dry Ingredients

   In a separate bowl, sift powdered sugar and flour together. Set aside.

   Time: PT2M

4. Make the Batter

   To the melted chocolate‑butter mixture, add the eggs (one at a time) and vanilla extract, whisking until fully incorporated. Gradually fold in the sifted sugar‑flour mixture until the batter is smooth and glossy.

   Time: PT5M

5. Add Matcha

   Sift the matcha powder over the batter and gently fold it in until evenly colored. The batter should have a vibrant green hue.

   Time: PT2M

6. Portion and Freeze

   Divide the batter evenly among the prepared ramekins (about 3‑4 oz each). Place the ramekins on a baking sheet and transfer to the freezer for at least 1 hour. This step creates the signature molten center.

   Time: PT0M

7. Bake

   Preheat the oven to 100°C (212°F). Bake the frozen ramekins for 10‑15 minutes, until the edges are set but the center still jiggles when gently shaken.

   Time: PT12M

   Temperature: 100°C

8. Finish and Serve

   Remove the cakes from the oven, let stand 1‑2 minutes, then run a thin knife around the edge and invert onto a plate. Dust generously with powdered sugar and serve immediately.

   Time: PT3M
