Carnival Cruises Warm Chocolate Melting Cake

The warm chocolate melting cake is one of my most favorite things about a Carnival cruise!  If you're a chocolate lover, then this recipe will bring a smile to your face & joy to your life!  Really... I could have this every single day for the smile factor alone!  This is the recipe that was published in the December 2011 edition of Carnival's Funville Times.

• 8 ounces of semisweet chocolate
• 1 cup (2 sticks) of butter
• 7 eggs, divided use
• 6 tablespoons of sugar
• 1/2 cup of flour

Preheat your oven to 375 degrees. Melt the chocolate and butter and cool for 10 minutes. In a separate bowl, mix four eggs with sugar. Whisk. Then add flour and whisk. Add the remaining three eggs and add the egg mixture to the chocolate mixture. Pour this entire mixture into individual ramekins. Bake until just done, about 15-20 minutes (interior will be melting). Serve with vanilla ice cream.
