I first had the Molten Chocolate Cake at Chris and Kristin Speyers (A big thanks to them!) home.  This incredibly rich cake is a popular cake on Carnival Cruises.  Here's my beered up version of the decadent dessert - adapted from the Carnival Cruise line recipe.

Rogue Ale Chocolate Stout Lava Cake
Serves 12

Ingredients

  • 2 3/4 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 1  cup butter
  • 1 cup stout or porter - I used Rogue Ale Chocolate Stout.
  • 8 whole eggs
  • 1 egg white
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 1 1/4 cups flour

Melt chocolate and butter. Mix 4 eggs and sugar and whisk for a few minutes; add flour. Add the remaining 4 eggs. Blend egg mixture into the melted chocolate mixture.  Stream the beer slowly into the mixture. Pour into twelve buttered ramekins. Bake in a preheated 350-degree oven for about 15 minutes. A crust will form on the top, sides and bottom. The inside will be molten like pudding. Be careful not to overcook. However, if you are transporting the cakes any distance, you might want to make the cakes on site.  You can also cook the cakes a little longer so that the middle is not molten, but just soft.  Serve with creme brandy anglaise.
