These are great. I baked for 12 minutes and although really good, next time I'll bake for 13 so they are a little more firm. I'll also use 1/2 milk chocolate for a change. I served with raspberries and vanilla ice cream and my guests loved it.

I followed the receipe exactly except for 1 thing, my ramekin's were 4 oz instead of 6 oz - so the lava was a little slower. Still very delish!

I also read a number a reviews to help ensure I was doing the right thing and I followed a couple of other reviewer suggestions (1 after buttering the ramekin's, coat with sugar (to make the sides crispy and (2 - I baked them 3 inches above the bottom rack.

I'm not a dessert chef - but I sure felt like one after making these!!! Now that this has boosted my confidence - I will be trying many more receipes that used to make me cringe!

Thank You Paula!!!!

This was amazing. My son said it was better than the similar dessert he orders from Brio's Italian Grill. Paula Deen's recipes are always wonderful!!

This dessert would be perfect for a small dinner party. Very elegant. I made a few modifications out of necessity: I didn't have any orange liqueur so I used Khalua liqueur and I didn't have any bittersweet chocolate so I used all semi-sweet. ( My husband is not a big dark chocolate fan anyway. Came out beautifully. Oh, one more thing: consider decreasing the cooking time. My first batch came out slightly overdone so I cooked it two minutes less the next time and it was perfect. Could just be my oven runs hot though...

Loved this recipe! Since I never follow a recipe to the letter, I couldn't start now, so here's how I varied it: I didn't have enough ramekins so I used standard sized silicone baking cups. I got 14, but could have filled 12 just a bit more, as none of them overflowed during baking. I have a convection oven so I baked them at 350 rather than the recommended 425 for 12 min. trying to allow for the reduced size. I will be trying this again to tweek the timing & temp., because the center wasn't as molten as I'd hoped, but I was happy with the results for this first time because the flavor was terrific. My guests really loved them and I never confessed that the center was supposed to gooier. Lastly, I served them with whipped cream that I added a touch of orange flavoring to. Next time, I plan to incorporate a bit of orange zest in the topping. Yummo!

I made these tonight for our dessert and I didn't substitute any of the ingredients. My ramekins aren't a set so they vary slightly in size. I didn't quite have the lava effect, though the middles were still gooey and I topped them with whipped cream. Next time I will try baking them for 12 minutes instead of 14 to get the "lava"!
