tee hee, joann!

I have this on Carnival. They call it Chocolate Melting cake.

This is recipe I have use, and it is absolutely delicious!

Easy Chocolate Lava Cakes
Dark chocolate may be substituted for semisweet in this recipe. These can be made at least a day ahead least one day ahead. Pour the mixture Pour the mixture into ramekins, cover and refrigerate. Be sure to bring to room temperature 30 minutes before baking. I also had a couple of baked and prepared ones left over, and I left them in the ramekins and reheated them in the microwave for 15 seconds, and they worked great!
Prep: 15 minutes

Cook: 15 minutes

Yield: 4 servings

Ingredients
4 ounces semisweet baking chocolate or 3/4 cup semisweet chocolate morsels (I used Ghirardelli for both) ****I use the morsels

1/2 cup butter (1 stick)

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 cup confectioners sugar

2 eggs

1 egg yolk

6 tablespoons all-purpose flour

Preparation
1. Preheat oven to 425F. Lightly grease 4 (8-ounce) ramekins (custard cups or souffle dishes). Place on a baking sheet.

2. Microwave chocolate and butter in a large microwaveable bowl on High 30 seconds or until butter is melted. Whisk until chocolate is completely melted. Whisk in vanilla and confectioners sugar until well blended. Whisk in eggs and yolk. Stir in flour and pour batter evenly into prepared custard cups.

2. Bake 13 minutes or until sides are firm but centers are soft. Let stand 10 minutes. Carefully loosen edges with a knife. Invert cakes onto serving plates and sift powdered sugar over the top. Serve immediately. Careful, it is too warm if you serve IMMEDIATELY.

It bakes in EXACTLY 13 minutes.

****I leave it in the ramekins as does Carnival. No need to loosen.

Maybe I'll give it a try, I'm not wild about dark chocolate though.

PS, time for my fudge pie now :^)

I googled and supposedly this is the recipe that's on the box: Recipe: ICE BOX CAKE: from the original on the wafer package Ingredients 1 package Famous Chocolate Wafers Heavy Whipping Cream Vanilla Flavoring Sugar Whip the cream in a cold bowl Add one teaspoon of vanilla flavoring and sugar to taste Whip cream fairly stiff before spreading cream between the wafers Lay wafers to form a log Use remaining cream cover the log Refrigerate for at least 4 hours Cut diagonally into 10 to 14 slices so that dessert has the appearance of being layered. If you prefer individual servings: place four or five wafers together in a smaller log. Information from Amazon regarding wafers and shipping: Case of 12 9-ounce boxes of chocolate wafers (108 total ounces) Made from enriched wheat flour, cocoa, coconut, and chocolate No trans fat; low in cholesterol and saturated fat Crispy and mildly sweet; try it for chocolate crumb crusts and other recipes These wafers were introduced in 1924 by Nabisco tina

Glad you're having finger sandwiches, cheese and fruit. My girlfriend has a party each Christmas which features nothing but sweets. I like a little sweet stuff now and then, but this is replete w/ chocolate fountain, chocolate martinis, cosmopolitans and trays of marvelous pastries. Nothing savory at all! It gives me a headache to think of it even now. My strategy the last couple of years is to eat before I go, and nibble on something seriously divine and maybe grab a strawberry or two from the chocolate fountain set-up. If there was just a little tray of sandwiches, I'd be happy.

This is, hands down my favorite dessert ever. It's an old Pillsbury bake-off winner that my mom has been making for close to 30 years. A couple of changes-I never, ever use raw eggs. Too risky. Instead I pick up some egg beaters. Also if I'm in a hurry I just use a container of cool whip instead of whipping cream. I describe this to people as a frozen peanut butter mousse with a peanut butter crust and chocolate swirls. MARBLE - OUS PEANUT BUTTER DESSERT 1/2 c. firmly packed brown sugar 1/2 c. peanut butter (I use crunchy & it is great!) 1/4 c. butter, softened 1 c. flour 1 c. (6 oz. pkg.) chocolate chips FILLING: 1 pkg. (8 oz.) cream cheese, softened 1/2 c. sugar 1/4 c. peanut butter 1 tsp. vanilla 2 eggs 1 c. (1/2 pt.) whipping cream, whipped & sweetened In small mixer bowl, cream brown sugar, peanut butter and butter until light and fluffy. Add flour; blend until crumbly. Sprinkle into ungreased 13 x 9 inch baking dish. Bake at 350 degrees for 10-15 minutes until golden brown. Set aside half of crumb mixture (about 1 cup) for topping. Lightly press remaining crumb mixture over bottom of pan. Prepare filling. Pour over crumb mixture in pan. Melt chocolate chips; drizzle over filling. Gently cut through to marble. Sprinkle with reserved crumbs; press in slightly. Freeze at least 2 hours or until serving. Remove from freezer 10 minutes before serving. Filling: In small mixture bowl, combine cream cheese, sugar, peanut butter and vanilla; beat at medium speed until smooth and creamy. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each. By hand, fold in whipping cream. Tip: If desired, you may substitute 2 cups (4 1/2 ounce carton) frozen whipped topping.
