Chocolate Lava Cakes

This is one of my favorite desserts and it's SO easy! These little cakes are a little bit of heaven with vanilla ice cream. I made these for Marion and Shaila while they were here and Shaila suggested I put it on our blog.




Chocolate Lava Cakes

1 stick of butter
4 Squares Semi-Sweet Chocolate
1 C. Powdered Sugar
2 Eggs
2 Egg Yolks
6 T. Flour

Preheat oven to 425. Melt butter and chocolate in microwave for 1 minute. Remove from microwave and whisk together until the chocolate is melted and smooth. Add powdered sugar, eggs, egg yolks, and flour. Butter 4 custard cups and divide batter evenly into cups. Bake for 13-15 minutes or until cake-like on top. Remove from oven and immediately invert onto plates. Serve warm with vanilla ice cream.

Can I say Y.U.M.? Thanks for making them for us, Cara! And the lemon bars, too! Both were great!

I'm glad Shaila suggested you post this because I was about to slyly suggest the same thing! Looks good, I'll have to try it. I have some custard cups, I wonder if they're big enough. Thanks for putting this up, looks gooooood! (and I especially like easy!)
