I’ve always loved to eat molten lava cakes whenever I go to dessert places. The first thing I order is always molten lava cake. The moment I put my spoon into the cake all the warm chocolate rushes out. Eating every single bite leaves behind a chocolatey taste in my mouth that makes me want to eat more than one. I decided to find a recipe and make it myself and share with my friends and family.
