Peanut Butter Chocolate Lava Cakes

A thrilling dessert that is so easy to make.  The most amazing part about this recipe is that the lava-like centre stays gooey for at least 1 hour. Yum!

Ingredients
1/2 cup butter (1 stick) cut into cubes, plus more for ramekins,
1 cup chocolate chips
1/2 cup powdered sugar plus more for topping
2 large eggs plus 2 egg yolks
1 tsp pure vanilla extract
1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 tsp salt
4 tbsp peanut butter divided
1 cup water
 
Method
Grease four ramekins with butter. In a medium microwave-safe bowl, combine butter and chocolate chips and heat in 30-second intervals until melted.

Add powdered sugar, eggs, egg yolks, and vanilla and whisk until smooth. Add cocoa powder, flour, and salt and whisk until just combined.

Fill ramekins halfway with batter, then top each with 1 tablespoon (heaping) of peanut butter. Top with remaining batter. Cover ramekins tightly with foil.

Place trivet inside Instant Pot and pour in water. Place three ramekins on trivet and stack fourth one in the centre on top.

Secure lid and Pressure Cook on High for 20 minutes. Choose Quick Release and then carefully open lid when pin drops (try not to get condensation on the ramekins).

Using tongs, carefully remove ramekins from Instant Pot. Uncover them and allow to cool slightly, then run a knife or offset spatula around edges. Invert each ramekin onto a plate, then dust with powdered sugar before serving.
