Chocolate Lava Cake Recipe

Leave a Comment

Confessions of a Chocoholic: Yes, when I saw a picture of this decadent dessert, it was calling my name. The moment I saw it I just had to track it down. Hey chocolate-lovers, doesn’t it look AMAZING? Well, here’s the recipe just for you (and me, too.)

Enjoy!

Chocolate Lava Cake

Ingredients

1 cup butter, melted

8 ounces semisweet chocolate or 8 ounces dark chocolate grated

1/2 cup granulated sugar

3/4 cup all purpose flour

5 eggs

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Premium Baking Chocolate

Directions

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
Grease butter into 8 ramekin* dishes. Grease liberally so it does not stick when you have to remove it.
In the top of a double boiler, or your favorite melting method, melt the chocolate, and stir in the butter.
Pour this into a large mixing bowl.
Sift in the flour and sugar and whisk together with melted chocolate.
Add eggs and keep whisking.
Pour mixture into prepared ramekins.
Bake for 10 minutes. Do not over-baked or you will not get the special melted center.
Serve warm with your choice of toppings. Ice cream is my favorite, but you could also add chopped nuts, melted chocolate or frosting.

Question: What’s a “ramekin” ?
Answer: It is a cute little souffle dish.

Enjoy!

Clean up quick and easy!

It is an excellent pet hair vacuum, too!

Happy October or, better yet, Happy Thanksgiving Month, Canada. What a fun month. Welcome to our party! This week our host is Linda from A Labour of Life and she is so happy that she gets to share her love of fall, and her national holiday the Canadian Thanksgiving. That is why she is celebrating fall in all its glory.

Celebration of All Gourd’y Details

This week, a return back to all things fall. Celebrating everything pumpkin. Normally we offer a variety, food, sweets, crafts and tables but today is a sweet switch on my norm.

Paper Pumpkin Crafts

First up are the cutest Paper Pumpkins from My French Twist . She tells us I’ve never been a big fan of wrapping my house in giant spider webs, but I have to say when those first crisp breezes of Fall begin to blow through my windows, I can’t wait to begin some serious seasonal decorating. And pumpkins. The only thing better than eating them is crafting with them.

Parts of a Pumpkin Craft

Got a furry pet who sheds??? (All furry pets shed, right?) Well, I tried more than one solution before I found the Shark vacuum cleaner. Oh my goodness, what a RELIEF! It cleans up pet hair, people hair and everything you want a vacuum to suck up EASILY and the canister cleaning is a DREAM COME TRUE! Press of a button. That simple.

Love boho? Me, too! This table runner is super pretty…

Butter & Bliss tells us that this versatile small batch recipe can be made in a variety of sizes and is a must for your fall baking!

How to Make Cinnamon Simple Syrup

The Kitchen is my Playground shares a fun Simple reyucipe. Follow these quick and easy steps on how to make Cinnamon Simple Syrup with just 3 simple ingredients and less than 10 minutes of hands-on time. Then use its cinnamon deliciousness in tasty fall cocktails and mocktails, to flavor coffee or tea, or to drizzle over a bowl of fresh fruit.

The Fall Home Organization Challenge

As cooler autumn air rolls in, it’s time to tackle the clutter and refresh the entertaining spaces in our homes. Welcome to The Fall Home Organization Challenge, where An Organized Season will guide us through practical, step-by-step tasks to prepare our homes for the cozy months ahead.

Slow Cooker Beef and Vegetable Soup

Mommy Hates Cooking shares a heartwarming story along with a great soup recipe. The best days growing up were when we saw grandma coming over with her huge pitcher of soup and cornbread. It was always this soup and she always brought it over in a big pitcher. It was just the best comfort meal from childhood.

Fall Table Setting

Masterpieces of my Life is again sharing my favorite topic: tablescapes. I am excited to share an early fall table setting today with copper accents and chalkboard pumpkin place cards. This table styling has subtle fall vibes without fully jumping into the pumpkin patch just yet.

Labrador Retrievers are super-shedders! They shed fur like crazy. When we got our first lab puppy we never thought of that. By the time did figure it out, what could we do?

Well, we weren’t going to say ‘goodbye’ to our beloved fur baby so we did the only logical thing … we got a SHARK! (Best pet hair vacuum ever!)
