"Chocolate molten lava cakes are super easy to make if you get the right timing and the correct temperature. This recipe will solve both of those problems for you. You can add some flavors if you are adventurous such as chili, ginger or cherry extract for a spicy or fruity cake. You may also add some toasted nuts to add a nutty aroma and flavor. These chocolate molten lava cakes can be paired with luscious dessert wines that match the intensity or the flavor of the chocolate."
