Vegan Lava Cakes Recipe (the Floor is Lava Edition!)

What’s more fun than making vegan lava cakes? Making vegan lava cakes… but the floor is lava!

When I decided to make a “the floor is lava” video in the kitchen, I wasn’t sure what recipe to make. My sister then came up with the brilliant idea to make lava cakes. If you haven’t watched my “the floor is lava” video yet, watch it here on IGTV!

Making lava cakes was a first for me, and I’m quite proud of how these cakes turned out! The chocolate cake is just the right amount of gooey, and the chocolate in the middle melts perfectly. These vegan lava cakes are best served hot, hot, hot! (Although I did leave a couple in the fridge overnight which was a whole different experience).

Tip: Try using different types of vegan chocolate for a nice surprise!
