Molten Lava Cake

Hmmm…what do I say about this dessert. Sheer decadence… 🙂

It is by far the most loved cake in my home. My husband & I share fond memories back from our dating days where we first tried it in an up-class Italian restaurant in Pune. I knew it as  ‘Chocolate Bomb’. Since then I have tried a couple of recipes and this one I find is fool – proof and easy to remember too. Timing is crucial for this baby. Keep an eye on her…

Enjoy the seductive pleasure of this warm, gooey chocolaty goodness!
