- 2 Tbsp Vegan dark chocolate chips
- 1-2 tsp Vegan butter for coating ramekin
- Optional: Powdered sugar, vegan ice cream
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400F.
- Start my whisking together the flour, sugar, baking powder, cocoa powder, and salt in a small bowl. In another bowl melt the coconut oil and mix with the milk.
- Add the wet ingredients into the dry and mix until combined and no clumps.
- In a 10oz ramekin, coat the bottom and sides with vegan butter (don’t skimp on this part). Then sprinkle in some extra cocoa powder on over the butter to also help prevent sticking.
- Pour the chocolate batter into the ramekin. Pour some dark chocolate chips in the center and push down with a spoon so they are submerged beneath the batter.
- Bake 13 min. Let sit for 1-2 minutes before taking a butter knife and rimming the sides of the bowl.
- Get a plate and flip ramekin onto plate. Sprinkle with some powdered sugar. Spoon some ice cream on top and enjoy!
