Should I make molten lava cakes or buy them?

Samantha Thomas

I've been looking at recipes but none of them stand out.  I know I can find them in the freezer section at the store and they are good, but not great.  Anyone have a great recipe?

They are sooooooooo easy!  There is a yummy and simple recipe on the Ghiardelli break apart semi-sweet chocolate that you can buy in the baking aisle of the grocery store.

They're soooo easy!  You should make them at home.

Yummy I always buy that brand anyway so I'll try it.  Thanks!

Just double check the recipe when you pick up the package.  There is a 60% cocoa and 70% and they have different recipes on them.

I have a great recipe, but think that the Trader Joes version is nearly identical to mine, so I generally save myself the effort! :-)

If I had realized these were so easy I would have been making them years ago!  LOL!

Sounds so yummy!
