This is what a chocolate lava cake looks like in the shape of a skillet cookie with salted caramel ice cream on top and thats exactly what I was shooting for…I love combining two beloved desserts into one glorious new creation especially when there’s lots of dark chocolate involved. If you’re a chocolate lover be sure to give this a thumbs up and share it with your fellow chocolate loving friends and family around you!
In a large bowl add 1/2 cup of dark chocolate…
…3 tbsp of butter…
…and a pinch of salt.
Microwave for two minutes and give this a good whisk until super smooth.
Add in 2 whole eggs and mix well.
Stir in 1 tbsp of vanilla paste.
Then sift in 1/2 cup of cake flour, 1/4 cup of sugar, and 2 tsp of salt.
Give this a good mix and then slowly add in 2-4 tbsp milk, depending on how large the eggs were you can add more or less milk.
Mix until silky smooth.
Coat a ramekin or skillet with a little bit of butter and sugar.
Pour in the batter until the dish is 2/3 filled up.
Transfer to the fridge to rest for 30 minutes.
Begin the caramel ice cream by bringing 1/2 cup of sugar and 1/4 cup of water to a simmer.
Carefully caramelize for about 7 minutes, or until the liquid is a golden brown.
Slowly whisk in 1 cup of cream…
…1 tbsp of vanilla paste…
…and 2 tsp of salt.
Give this a quick mix.
Transfer to your ice cream maker to set up.
Whip up a simple hazelnut “brittle” by gently spreading 1/4 cup of tempered dark chocolate onto a silpat or non-stick surface.
Sprinkle with 2 tbsp of toasted hazelnuts…
…and 1 tsp of maldon salt. Allow to cool and harden.
With everything prepped, transfer the cooled pizookie to a 400°F oven and bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are nice and crispy.
Top with a few scoops of the home made caramel ice cream…
…a couple shards of the hazelnut “brittle”…
…and a sprinkle of cocoa powder and powdered sugar. All that’s left to do is ENJOY!
