INGREDIENTS:

For Molten Brownie:

- Readymade eggless brownie: 8 pieces / 400g

- Chocolate truffle: ½ cup / 120g, melted

- Dark chocolate: 2 tbsp, grated

- Mango pieces: 2 tbsp, optional

- Fresh mint: 4 sprigs, for garnish

Tools Needed:

- Plastic wrap/cling film: 4 pieces

- Small glass bowls: 4 pieces, 2-inch diameter

METHOD - STEP BY STEP:

STEP 1: Make Brownie Crumbs

1. Crumble 8 readymade brownies into fine powder. Use hands or mixer. No chunks.

STEP 2: Shape Brownie Cups

2. Line 4 small glass bowls with plastic wrap, leaving extra wrap outside.

3. Add 2-3 tbsp chocolate truffle to brownie crumbs. Mix till dough forms.

4. Divide mixture into 4 equal portions. Press each portion in lined bowl, making ½ inch hollow center. Thickness ~12mm.

STEP 3: Add Molten Center + Set

5. Add 1 generous spoon melted chocolate truffle in center hollow of each brownie cup.

6. Gather plastic wrap and twist gently to seal + shape round.

7. Chill in fridge 10 mins till it holds shape. This sets the “molten” center.

STEP 4: Serve

8. Unwrap carefully onto serving plate. Peel off plastic.

9. Top with grated chocolate + mango pieces + mint sprig.

10. Serve immediately for gooey molten lava center

NO-FAIL TIPS FOR PERFECT MOLTEN CENTER: 

1. Don’t overfill truffle: 1 spoon max in center. More = leaks while unmolding.

2. Chill time: 10 min is must. Skip chilling = brownie will break when unmolding.

3. Serve hot: Microwave 10 seconds before serving if needed. Molten center only works when warm.

4. Readymade brownie tip: Use fudgy brownie, not cakey. Fudgy = better binding + taste.

FAQ - PEOPLE ALSO ASK:

1. Can I make this without readymade brownie?

Yes, bake eggless brownie first, cool, then crumble. Recipe link here.

2. Can I freeze these molten brownies? 

No. Freeze = truffle center becomes hard. Make fresh + serve warm only.

3. What if I don’t have plastic wrap? 

Use silicone cupcake molds. Grease well and demold after chilling.

 Method: 

Crumble the brownie: 

Break the readymade brownies into fine crumbs using your hands or a blender.  

Assemble: Line the glass bowls with plastic wrap. 

Layer the crumbled brownie at the bottom, then add a generous spoon of chocolate truffle in the centre. 

 Set: Gather the plastic wrap and gently press to shape. Chill for 10 mins so it holds shape.  

Serve: Unwrap carefully onto a plate. Top with grated chocolate, mango pieces, and a mint sprig for garnish.  

Tip: Serve immediately for that molten, gooey centre!

Crumble the brownie to a powder.

Add 2-3 tbsp of the chocolate truffle, mix well and divide the mixture into 6 equal portions.

Line the glass bowls with plastic wraps. Using one portion of the cake mixture line a 50 mm. (2”) diameter greased glass bowl at the base and the sides with your fingers leaving a 37 mm. (1½”) hollow in the centre. The thickness of the lining should be around 12 mm.

(½ “).

Repeat with 3 portions of the cake mixture to line 3 more glass bowls. Keep the remaining 2 portions of the brownie mixture aside.

Refrigerate for 20 minutes to set.

Spoon out 2 tbsp of the chocolate truffle and the 1/2 tbsp of the grated chocolate into the hollow space of each bowl leaving ½“from the top and refrigerate again for 20 minutes.

Cover this ½“space of each bowl with 1/2 portion of reserved brownie mixture and refrigerate for another 20 minutes.

When set, unmould, remove the plastic wrap and place on 4 individual serving plates.

To serve, microwave for 30 seconds and serve immediately garnished with mango and mint sprigs.
