Molten Decadence
Not all wildflowers are delicate. Some bloom dark and intense, like night-flowering plants that hold their secrets until the perfect moment. This chocolate lava cake is that flower—restrained on the outside, molten and wild within. You break the crust and liquid chocolate spills out like lava flowing from volcanic soil, rich and unstoppable. Twenty minutes is all it takes to create restaurant-level magic at home. Butter, dark chocolate, eggs, a whisper of flour. The technique is simple; the result is spectacular. Serve it warm with cold cream, and watch as the contrast—hot and cold, liquid and solid—makes everything feel possible.
