Ingredients You Will Need
Unsalted butter half cup
Eggs three large
Egg yolks two large
Heavy cream quarter cup
Cream cheese half cup softened
Pure cocoa powder two tablespoons optional if included in your carnivore approach
Salt quarter teaspoon
Optional animal based sweetener such as powdered lactose free dairy sweetener one tablespoon if desired
Extra butter for greasing ramekins
Step by Step Method
First, preheat your oven to four hundred degrees Fahrenheit. This ensures the oven is ready when the batter is done.
Take two or three small oven safe ramekins. Grease them well with butter so the cake does not stick.
In a small saucepan, add butter and cream cheese. Heat on very low heat until both are soft and melted.
Stir gently until smooth. Do not boil. Remove from heat and let it cool slightly.
In a mixing bowl, crack the eggs and add the egg yolks. Whisk gently until combined.
Add heavy cream to the eggs and mix slowly.
Pour the warm butter and cream cheese mixture into the eggs while stirring gently.
Add salt and cocoa powder if using. Mix until smooth and creamy.
If you are using an animal based sweetener, add it now and stir well.
The batter should look thick, shiny, and smooth.
Pour the batter evenly into the greased ramekins.
Place the ramekins on a baking tray for easy handling.
Put the tray into the oven and bake for eight to ten minutes.
The edges should look set, but the center should still be soft.
Remove from the oven carefully and let the cakes rest for one minute.
Run a knife gently around the edges.
Turn each ramekin upside down onto a plate.
Lift slowly and carefully.
Serve immediately while warm for the lava center effect.
