What is your all time favorite dessert? Let me rephrase it. If you can only enjoy just 1 type of dessert for the rest of your life, what would you pick? I’m sure my whole family would have the same answer….THIS, Chocolate Lava Cake 朱古力心太軟!
If you get to taste this cake, I’m sure you would have agreed to my previous statement. This Chocolate Lava Cake is rich, decadent, and so satisfying. The edges of the cake is slightly crunchy, similar to the edges of a good brownie. And the center of the cake is light and tender. When you spoon into the cake, you’ll see the warm chocolate 'lava' oozing out! The cake itself is not overly sweet but definitely rich and deep in chocolate flavor. I love pairing it with a scoop of homemade Vanilla Bean Ice Cream for a contrast of temperature and texture.
This cake might look fancy and difficult to make, but it’s quite easy to prepare. I have a foolproof recipe for you and if you follow my tips and tricks in the video tutorial, you can definitely make it too. If you make this dessert for your sweethearts, you’ll definitely melt their hearts! Shhh….no one has to know it’s actually so easy to make. Let them think you spend all day in the kitchen to make this for them! Since this recipe yields 4 cakes, it might be too many for a romantic dinner for 2. If you are not planning to bake all 4 cakes, you can prepare the batter the same way and keep unbaked ones in the ramekins in the fridge until you are ready to bake. So, if you’re planning a romantic Valentine’s Day dinner at home, you can prepare the batter ahead of time and bake off the cakes at a later time.
I hope you have enjoyed today’s recipe and tutorial and will try this recipe soon. Thank you so much for stopping by and stay tuned for more fun recipe.
