Copycat chili’s molten lava cakes recipe is way easier to make than you probably think and that hot fudge oozing out is such a crowd pleaser!
Don’t you dare tell me that you’ve never had a Molten Lava Dessert at Chili’s. Don’t. You. Dare. A few years ago I was in Hawaii and we were STARVING, the first and only restaurant that we found was a Chili’s. Random eh? We had this copycat chili’s molten lava cake for dessert and while we may not really be cake people, this is soooo delicious!
INGREDIENTS:
1 Duncan Hines Fudge Cake Mix
3 Large Eggs
1 Cup Milk
1/2 Cup Oil
1/2 Cup Sour Cream
Vanilla Ice Cream
Chocolate Shell Ice Cream Topping
Caramel Sauce
HOT FUDGE
1 (14-oz.) can sweetened condensed milk
1 (12-oz.) bag semi sweet chocolate chips
4 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1 pinch salt
MAGIC SHELL
2 Cups Chocolate Chips (we do half milk half semi sweet or all semi sweet)
1/4 Cup Coconut Oil
DIRECTIONS:
In a large bowl, stir together the dry cake mix, eggs, sour cream, milk and oil.
Spray a large Cupcake pan with nonstick spray and evenly destribute batter 3/4 way full. Bake according to package directions.
Turn the cakes out onto their tops creating a “volcano” and allow to cool.
Using a pairing or serrated knife, gently cut a whole out of the center without going clear to the bottom. Fill with hot fudge that is cool and then slice off the bottom circle of the piece of cake you removed and place it on the hot fudge hole like a lid.
Freeze for 30 minutes, up to 2 days with plastic wrap over the pan of cakes.
Remove the cakes from the freezer and reheat in the microwave until warm, about 30 seconds. Top with ice cream, caramel, and magic shell.
HOT FUDGE
Melt all of the ingredients in a medium sauce pan over medium heat. Bring to a boil, stirring constantly. Continue to boil and stir for two minutes.Remove the pan from the heat and continue to stir for one minute. Allow the fudge sauce to cool.
