Instructions

Preparation

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease 4 individual ramekins with non-stick spray.
In a large bowl, whisk together the whey-casein protein, cocoa powder, flour, sugar, and salt.

The Batter

Add the egg whites and hot water to the dry ingredients, whisking until smooth and glossy. Do not overmix to keep the cakes tender.
Divide the batter evenly among the 4 prepared ramekins.

Bake and Serve

Bake for 8-10 minutes. The edges should be set and firm, while the center should still look slightly soft and jiggly.
Let the cakes rest in the ramekins for 2 minutes before carefully inverting onto plates.
Optional: dust with a tiny amount of powdered sugar and top with fresh raspberries before serving immediately.

Chef's Notes & Tips

Tip 1 of 2

To achieve the perfect molten center, test one cake first; if the center is too firm, reduce bake time by 1-2 minutes.

Tip 2 of 2

Using a high-quality Dutch-processed cocoa powder will significantly deepen the chocolate flavor without adding extra sugar.
