Recipe Tips
cake party Expand in the oven, but flatten out a little or even sink a bit as they cool.this is a good idea Let them sit for 5-10 minutes So the melted middle portion can thicken slightly and then cool down.
These Chocolate Lava Cakes are definitely Best when they’re warm and sticky, but if you want to make it ahead of time, you can reheat in the microwave for a minute or so until the middle melts again.
If the cake doesn’t melt in the middle This means you’ve overcooked the cake! Next time wait until the edges are just set and the middle is still soft and wobbly.
We strongly recommend use ramekins! It helps give it the perfect cake shape and helps with most of the baking and allows the outside to bake well and the center to stay melted.
