Dark chocolate molten cake is a dessert that is very delicious and quick to make, it will appeal to both adults and children. The chocolate cakes are excellent either eaten at room temperature with a dusting of powdered sugar or warm, perhaps accompanied by a scoop of vanilla ice cream. I used soy milk to make them, but you can try with other types of plant-based milk like almond, oat, or vanilla, varying each time you prepare them. This way they are perfect for vegans or lactose intolerant individuals. If you want to make them gluten-free, use rice flour, they will be very soft. The dark chocolate molten cake is suitable for lactose intolerant and also for vegans. Now let’s see how to make the dark chocolate molten cake and if you make it, let me know. Barbara
