Chocolate Lava Cake
Easy
Makes: 5 Lava Cakes
Nuts are one of my favorote flavors to pair with chocolate and this indulgant dessert is definitely a showstopper. The lava center in this application comes from a ganache truffle so the fluidity of the C811 is especially desireable. Feel free to substitute any nut flour or liqueur of your choice.
