  • Mix in your favorite add-ins if desired.

Step 3: Microwave

Step 4: Serve Warm

  • Let cool for 1 minute.
  • Top with whipped cream, ice cream, chocolate sauce, or powdered sugar!

👩‍🍳 Flavor Variations

  • Chocolate Lava Cake: Add 1 tsp Nutella in the center before microwaving

  • Let the cake rest for 1 minute after cooking — it finishes setting.
