Carnival Cruises are known for their Warm Chocolate Melting Cake and now you can make it at home – and it’s so easy!!!!! The cake is light and the inside is rich and decadent perfection!
I’ve been wanting to have this cake ever since I got home in January! And now that my next cruise is a big ol’ TBD – I was so excited to make this for myself!
When I was on the Carnival Victory in January – I did the Chef’s Table and actually got to make this Warm Chocolate Melting Cake with one of the pastry chefs. That dinner – man – still thinking about it! The food on the ship was really great across the board – I loved it!
How do you make Warm Chocolate Melting Cake?
I was actually surprised at how easy it was! First you melt chocolate and butter together in the microwave. While that’s melting – mix together eggs, sugar and flour. Then – you mix them together and into the ramekins. THAT’S IT!
It’s kind of magical how the outside forms this cake but the inside is just a melty chocolate delight! You can have this plain, with a little powdered sugar, whipped cream, peanut butter or ice cream. It’s a very rich dessert – so really you don’t need to fill the ramekins – half full is plenty!
I cut the original recipe for Carnival Cruise’s Warm Chocolate Melting Cake down to make it for two. I mean – it’s such an easy dessert to make. Individual chocolate melting cakes are perfect for date night!
What kind of chocolate is in Warm Chocolate Melting Cake?
The initial recipe called for Semi Sweet and Sweet Chocolate. I used a combination of Baking Chocolate – Bakers Brand has semi-sweet and German chocolate.
Be sure to check out all the amazing food I had on the cruise! And if you’re looking for other super simple desserts – I’ve got you covered there too!
