I love hosting Book Club. Who doesn't like a reason to make a special treat for good friends. Tonight we discussed the book The 5 Love Languages by Gary Chapman. This books has been around for awhile but it is one that you can read and reread. I always like to read books on improving relationships. This book has plenty of food for thought. I decided my love language is desserts!
We enjoyed this dessert with chocolate covered strawberries. Strawberries are sweet and delicious right now so enjoy--with or without chocolate.
Molten Lava Cakes--my way
3 tablespoons butter
heaping 1/3 cup semi sweet chocolate chips
3 tablespoons flour
1/2 cup powdered sugar
1 egg
1 egg yolk
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
Melt the butter and chocolate chips together in the microwave. Add the flour and powdered sugar--mixture will be thick. Stir in eggs and vanilla. Mix until smooth. Pour into 4 or 5 muffin tins that have been sprayed with Pam. Bake at 425 for 8 minutes. Let cakes cool in the pan for a minute or two. Remove and serve with whipped cream, vanilla ice cream and berries. This is one decedent delicious dessert. It is so quick you can mix it up while your oven heats and in 8 minutes you have the best dessert. It is too easy!
I cut the recipe way back and make smaller portions. But one cake with ice cream is a perfect dessert.

I never knew one of the love languages was desserts! ;) I think that might be mine too--and these look so good!
Those are so beautiful! Your guests must have felt very special indeed to be presented with that at book club! Very nice. BTW, thank you for visiting and commenting on all my DH recipes, you are so sweet. I wrote a little note back on each one as I appreciated the comments so much.
Is it just a regular size muffin tin? They look bigger than that. Can't wait to try...

I wish I could come to YOUR book club! I bet even non readers would show up!
I think I could go for a molten lava cake your way! The strawberries are a perfect touch!
What a sweet little lava cake. I bet your book club loves it when its your turn to host! Thanks for sharing at One Creative Weekend!
Chocolate lava cakes are one of my favourite puddings. I usually make them for Valentines day.
These look fantastic. You really don't have to make a special filling? They just cook that way? Amazing!
I featured your idea today on One Creative Weekend! The new party is open. I’d love it if you stopped by, grabbed a featured button, and linked up anything new you'd like to share at OneCreativeMommy.com.
Love your pictures and this lava cake looks decadent!
Have a great weekend.
