Flourless Lava Cake
Who loves chocolate?
I have a very special Lava Cake recipe for you!
To make my flourless lava cake, I wanted to avoid using almond flour and coconut flour. I personally avoid them for my clients who are trying to lose weight.
It took lots of experimenting but I finally created the best recipe!
Flourless Lava Cake
Ingredients
CAKE:
- 7 ounces unsweetened baking chocolate chopped fine
- 14 tablespoons coconut oil (or butter)
- 1 1/4 cup Natural Sweetener (powdered erythritol)
- 5 large eggs
OPTIONAL FILLING:
- 8 ounces cream cheese (or Kite Hill for dairy free)
- 4 tablespoons Natural Sweetener (or 1 teaspoon stevia glycerite) to taste
- 1 large egg
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Grease a muffin tin pan or ramekins. Set aside.
- Brown the butter (if desired…tastes way better!) in a saucepan. Once the butter is brown (not black!), slowly add the chocolate. Add the sweetener. Let cool in fridge for awhile. Once cool, add one egg at a time using a mixer.
- Cream filling: Mix cream cheese, sweetener and egg.
- Fill the muffin tins with chocolate filling and a 1 tablespoon of cheese filling in the middle. Bake for 12 minutes. I inverted my torte; I thought it looked better that way. Enjoy!
- Serve with a scoop of my Protein Ice Cream if desired: Click HERE

TESTIMONY OF THE DAY
Doesn’t Jozie look AMAZING??? She came to my house for my last class and she is such a special girl!
“Hi! My daughter Jozie went from a women’s small/medium to a children’s size 10. She lost 25lbs after coming to your class.
Her daily battles with blood sugar and feeling unwell are GONE!
Her lymphedema is GONE!
Needing to eat every couple of hours is GONE!
Anxiety is almost GONE!
Food worries GONE!
Sugar cravings GONE!
She has more energy, has gotten sick less, is happier, never feels hungry, she grew a couple inches which is HUGE for her TS, and she overall feels GREAT!
I am so thankful and feel so blessed the Lord gave us the tools and Maria Emmerich and Craig Emmerich to completely change our health and ultimately our lives!
It feels amazing to feel so much better than we have in years and probably ever for Jozie“

I am sooo going to make this!!! One question…how did you add the eggs? Did you stir them in with a spoon by hand? Or did you mix them in with a mixer? Thanks!
looks super yummy! Question: how do you buy your truvia? I’ve only seen it in the little packets. One cup worth of little packets is crazy…
Truvia does come in a tub… It is just hard to find.
I buy erythritol and stevia glycerite, which are the 2 ingredients in Truvia. I save money that way too.
Oh that is just naughty.
Makes me want to do eeeevil things with chocolate 🙂

I can’t find the Truvia here either–so what formula would one use for the equivalent to equal that of truvia in your recipes–I have stevia and erythritol? thanks so much-!!! Love your recipes!!! and congrats by the way!!!
Every time I try this my marscapone becomes liquidy when I mix it with the egg and sweetener! Then it mixes with the cake and (though still AMAZINGLY DELICIOUS) becomes a souffle cake not a torte at all. Any suggestions on how to keep the filling firm?
The filling should set up after it bakes… Like a cheesecake…is it better after it bakes?
No it just completely baked into the cake. Sad..tasty…but sad. Maybe if I bake the 1st layer of cake then add the filling, bake for a bit, and then add the rest of the cake?
Yeah, or try only adding 1/2 of a beaten egg into the cheese…
Ok I’ll give that a try next time (already mixed it again this round)! Thanks so much Maria!! Looove your site!
I made these last night and they turned out perfectly, very cake-like! I love these, makes me feel like I am cheating!
I made these last night and the turned out perfect! They are very fair-like, makes me feel like I’m cheating!
Thank you for your kind words!!! I’m so glad you liked it!
Hi Maria
Is the swerve powdered or granular and can I replace it with xylitol? Also is the chocolate melted before you add to browned butter or whole. Thanks
