Oh honey, let me tell you about this heavenly dessert that’s been driving my family absolutely wild! My Triple Chocolate Caramel Lava Cakes are so sinfully delicious, your taste buds will think they’ve died and gone to dessert heaven. Trust me, this recipe has gotten me marriage proposals at dinner parties! 😉
Let’s get down to business, shall we?
What you’ll need:
– 8 oz high-quality dark chocolate (don’t you dare use the cheap stuff!)
– 1/2 cup unsalted butter
– 4 eggs
– 1/2 cup granulated sugar
– 1/3 cup all-purpose flour
– 4 caramel-filled chocolate squares
– 2 tbsp cocoa powder
– Vanilla ice cream for serving (because duh!)
Y’all, before we continue – if you’re loving this recipe already, make sure to follow me on Newsbreak for daily doses of mouth-watering recipes that’ll make your family think you secretly attended culinary school!
Now, let’s make some magic happen:
1. Preheat that oven to 425°F (220°C). Ladies, this is not the time to eyeball temperatures!
1. Grease four ramekins with butter and dust with cocoa powder. Be generous – we’re not counting calories today!
1. In a double boiler (or microwave if you’re living on the edge), melt the chocolate and butter together until smooth. Let it cool slightly while you move on to the next step.
1. In a separate bowl, whisk those eggs and sugar until they’re thick and pale yellow. This is your arm workout for the day, you’re welcome!
1. Fold the chocolate mixture into the egg mixture. Add flour and stir until just combined. Don’t overmix – we’re making lava cakes, not bread!
1. Fill each ramekin halfway, pop a caramel-filled chocolate square in the center, then cover with remaining batter.
1. Bake for 12-14 minutes until the edges are set but the center is still jiggly. Timing is everything here, ladies!
Let them cool for just 2 minutes (I know it’s hard to wait!), then invert onto serving plates. Top with vanilla ice cream and watch as that molten chocolate-caramel center oozes out like liquid gold!

Oh. My. Goodness. The way that warm chocolate and caramel just flows… it’s almost inappropriate! 😏
