This recipe is fantastic!!! I'm 23 weeks pregnant and this really satisfies my sweet sensations! I have made this 4 times already. That tells you how good it is.

Unlike a true molten lava cake that has a truffle center, this is a cake with unbaked batter in the middle. Soft center is grainy. So-so. A cheap and quick knock-off of the real thing.

Very yummy and very rich. Chocolate lovers will love this recipe. I made it exactly as directions stated. I added vanilla ice cream on the side to cut the richness and it was superb. Will make again!

These were a huge Valentine hit!!!! Very fast & easy which is always a plus. I served these with strawberries and a small amount of cream. The best part of the recipe is that you usually have the ingredients (which aren't many) on hand in the house. Also, serve these cakes on some pretty dishes and this dessert looks like you've slaved away for hours! Enjoy!!
