Use 4 tablespoon cornflour and ½ cup semi sweet chocolate chips if you want it set like panna cotta.

Hello Kushboo,
I love your blog & especially healthy recipes. But once in a while little treats are good to enjoy our selves & also to enjoy with family, friends & big parties. I request you to try & post the molten lava cake recipe (no eggs, not too much chocolate , not too much butter). I want light recipe which is not heavy after we eat.we are vegetarian but we consume eggs sometimes. But still i like to with no egg or vegan recipes if i found anything really good just like your blog.
i want to try your mango pana cotta & semiya kheer. But i want to do that for a around 30 to 35 people. So i was wondering how to scale it up/ i mean the measurments? is it a good idea to serve indivitual disposbale cups or make it in a single big bowl or tray.
i dont have much space in my fridge to do it in a invidual cups. But one day i really i want to try that recpie. can we use canned mango puree?
Thank you for your patience 7 sorry for long post
Khushboo
Hello Sweety . Thank you for writing to me. Molten lava cake is on my list. I make only eggfree recipes:) About mango panna cotta. You can easily increase the recipe. Test a small batch first. And you can make it in a large pan. Whatever works for you. Good luck!

What a great, easy idea! I’m diabetic so I will adapt by using sugarfree choco pudding & sugarfree choco syrup. Can’t wait to make it!

Hello Ren , sugar free sounds great. Try using Dates if you can. Thank you for your thoughts.
