Calling all chocolate lovers! This is THE most tempting of all chocolate desserts! Warm chocolate melting cake is a warm moist cake on the outside with melted chocolate on the inside.
A few years ago I was fortunate enough to be on the Carnival Splendor cruise ship. This is where I had my first taste of this unforgettable chocolate cake. I remember ordering this for dessert not expecting anything more than a chocolate cake. Being a die hard chocolate lover, I knew it was going to be impossible to forget about this dessert.
I hesitantly approached making this chocolate cake, not really expecting to be able to make it right the first time. How was I supposed to get the outside firm and the inside gooey?? The recipe calls for five ingredients and 14 minutes of time, sounded too good to be true. I was thrilled when it came out of the oven looking just like I remembered! Warm chocolate melting cake with it’s ooey gooey inside is actually very easy to make! I am so happy I didn’t lose this recipe. Now you too can have this highly addictive cake anytime right at home. Thanks Carnival cruise lines sharing your recipe!
