Prepare for pure decadence with this Single-Serving Chocolate Lava Cake. This iconic dessert is surprisingly easy to make and delivers an impressive 'wow' factor. The outer layer bakes into a delicate, tender cake, while the center remains a molten river of rich, dark chocolate that flows out upon slicing. Using high-quality dark chocolate is the secret to achieving that deep, intense flavor. This recipe is perfectly portioned for one or two and is the ideal way to cap off a special dinner. Serve immediately with a scoop of vanilla bean ice cream or a dusting of powdered sugar.
