DS brought these to dinner. Highly recommend! Colleen

A Clementine Chocolate Lava Cake for Tonight (& 3 More Nights). Serves: 1 (4 times)

4 ounces dark, bittersweet chocolate (60% or more cacao)

2 large eggs

1/2 cup sugar

1 pinch salt

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 clementine, zested

1/2 cup olive oil

Powdered sugar, for garnish

Preheat oven to 400°F. Grease four 6-ounce ramekins and place them on a sheet pan. Melt chocolate in the microwave and set aside to cool slightly. In a separate bowl, whisk together eggs, sugar, salt, vanilla, clementine zest, and olive oil until light and fluffy. Fold in the chocolate. Pour batter into the ramekins and bake for 10-12 minutes, or until just cooked. (The tops should be slightly cracked, the insides hot and gooey.) Dust with powdered sugar before serving.

 
Perhaps because winter used to be their *season* and the Clementine Publicity Agency is

promoting recipes using them?

 
It appears to be a "new" recipe. Wondered about olive oil/

clementines, too. These lava cakes are so very tasty! I searched for non-chocolate lava-cake versions and haven't been successful finding ones that use olive oil. Our son made another batch for New Years Eve smileys/wink.gif Colleen
