Over the past few days, I’ve been posting recipes from the Valentine’s Dinner my husband and I enjoyed together!  So far, I’ve posted recipes for Parmesan Orzo Pasta, BLT Stuffed Tomatoes, and Lobster Colorado.  All of which were outstanding, and unbelievably delicious.  However, no Valentine’s Dinner is complete without the all important chocolate dessert.  Thus, today’s post of Chocolate Lava Cakes is the final installment from our Valentine’s Menu recipes.

Go grab a napkin…you’ve been drooling on your keyboard. But seriously, though, just look at those pictures!  Doesn’t that look like heaven on a plate?!  Ya know if…heaven were food?

This dessert just screams elegance and decadence and luxury all rolled up in one gooey chocolate package.  Anytime I go to a restaurant, and the words “molten” “chocolate” or “lava” appear in any combination on the dessert menu, I’m hooked.  Does it matter if I’ve already eaten to the point of being fully satisfied?  No.  Because this isn’t just any dessert we’re talking about here…this is molten chocolate baked inside of a cake!

Now here’s the part you won’t believe (and neither did I)…this is actually VERY VERY easy to make!  It’s quite possibly just about as easy as cake from a box.  And WAY better.  All together, this took about 5 minutes to prep and then 12 minutes to bake in the oven.  It’s so simple and deliciously rich, how can you not try this recipe?
