Granny made Chocolate Lava Cake for Dessert
Granny made Grandpa a Chocolate Lava Cake for dessert, and it was absolutely delicious! The rich, gooey center and the perfect balance of sweetness made it a hit with everyone. It's so good that this recipe will definitely become one to share with family and friends for years to come! This easy chocolate lava cake is a great dessert for dinner parties, family gatherings, or a cozy treat after a meal. It’s deliciously decadent and sure to impress anyone with its gooey, molten center! Enjoy!
Chocolate Lava Cake
Ingredients:
1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter
6 oz semi-sweet chocolate (or bittersweet chocolate, chopped)
1 cup powdered sugar
2 large eggs
2 large egg yolks
1 tsp vanilla extract
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
Pinch of salt
Optional for Serving:
Vanilla ice cream
Whipped cream
Fresh berries
Instructions:
Preheat your oven: Set your oven to 425°F (220°C). Butter and flour 4 small ramekins or oven-safe cups (about 6 oz size) to prevent the cakes from sticking.
Melt the chocolate and butter: In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the butter and chocolate together in 20-30 second intervals, stirring between each, until smooth and completely melted. Alternatively, you can melt them in a heatproof bowl over a pot of simmering water (double boiler method). Once melted, set the mixture aside to cool slightly.
Mix the batter: In a medium bowl, whisk together the powdered sugar, eggs, egg yolks, vanilla extract, flour, and a pinch of salt until smooth. Gradually pour in the cooled chocolate mixture, stirring until fully combined.
Fill the ramekins: Pour the batter evenly into the prepared ramekins, filling each about 3/4 full.
Bake: Place the ramekins on a baking sheet and bake for about 12-14 minutes. You’ll know they’re done when the edges are firm but the center is soft (it should look slightly undercooked). The top should appear set, but when you tap the ramekin lightly, it should jiggle a bit in the middle.
Cool slightly and serve: Let the cakes cool for 1 minute, then carefully run a knife around the edges of each cake to loosen it. Place a plate on top of the ramekin and carefully invert it. Gently lift the ramekin off to reveal the molten center.
Optional garnish: Top the lava cake with a scoop of vanilla ice cream, a dollop of whipped cream, or fresh berries for extra indulgence.
Tips:
For a richer flavor, try using dark chocolate (70% cocoa or higher).
You can make the batter ahead of time, store it in the fridge, and bake it just before serving. If doing this, increase the baking time by a couple of minutes.
If you want to make this dessert for a crowd, you can easily double the recipe and bake in larger ramekins or even a muffin tin (adjust the baking time slightly).

The Power of Compassion in Everyday Life with Respecting Opinions Even When We Disagree
In a world that often feels chaotic and divided, especially with Election Day right around the corner, the choice to be kind can have a profound impact. In our diverse world, differing opinions are inevitable. Whether in conversations with friends, family discussions, or online debates, we often encounter viewpoints that challenge our own beliefs. While it’s natural to feel defensive or frustrated when faced with opposing ideas, choosing kindness and respecting others' opinions can lead to healthier interactions and personal growth. Here are some compelling reasons to choose kindness every day.
Fostering Understanding
Respecting differing opinions opens the door to understanding. When we approach conversations with kindness, we create a safe space for dialogue. This willingness to listen allows us to gain insights into others’ perspectives, which can enrich our own understanding of complex issues. By engaging respectfully, we acknowledge that everyone has unique experiences and backgrounds that shape their beliefs.
Kindness Creates Connections
At its core, kindness fosters connections between people. A simple act—a smile, a compliment, or a helping hand—can break down barriers and build relationships. When we choose kindness, we create an environment where empathy thrives, and genuine connections flourish. These relationships can provide support, joy, and a sense of belonging.
Building Stronger Relationships
Disagreements can strain relationships, but kindness and respect can help bridge the gap. When we demonstrate an openness to differing viewpoints, we build trust and strengthen our connections. Friends and family members are more likely to feel valued and heard, leading to deeper, more meaningful relationships—even in the face of disagreement.
Kindness Boosts Well-Being
Research has shown that performing acts of kindness can enhance our mental and emotional well-being. Helping others releases endorphins, often referred to as the “helper’s high.” This boost in mood can reduce stress, anxiety, and feelings of loneliness, leading to a more positive outlook on life.
Modeling Respectful Behavior
In a world where divisive rhetoric can dominate discussions, choosing to respect differing opinions sets a positive example. By demonstrating kindness and respect, we encourage others to do the same. This ripple effect can lead to more compassionate interactions both online and offline, contributing to a culture of understanding.
Kindness is Contagious
When we practice kindness, we inspire others to do the same. A kind gesture can create a ripple effect, encouraging those around us to spread positivity. Whether it’s paying for someone’s coffee or volunteering in the community, acts of kindness can inspire a chain reaction, creating a more compassionate world.
Kindness Promotes Inclusivity
In times of division and conflict, choosing kindness can help bridge gaps and promote inclusivity. By showing compassion and understanding to others, we can foster environments where everyone feels valued and accepted. This inclusivity enhances community spirit and encourages diverse perspectives, leading to richer conversations and experiences.
Reducing Conflict and Tension
Disagreements often lead to unnecessary conflict and tension. Choosing kindness and respect can diffuse heated situations, allowing us to navigate differences more calmly. By focusing on understanding rather than winning an argument, we contribute to a more peaceful environment, both personally and within our communities.
Kindness Enhances Perspective
Choosing kindness often requires us to consider the feelings and experiences of others. This practice cultivates empathy and helps us gain perspective on situations we might not fully understand. When we approach others with kindness, we become more open-minded and accepting, which can lead to personal growth and improved relationships.
Kindness is a Gift to Yourself
When we choose to be kind, we not only uplift others but also enrich our own lives. Kindness can lead to increased self-esteem and satisfaction, as we recognize our ability to make a difference. This sense of purpose can be incredibly fulfilling and encourages a positive mindset.
Kindness Builds Resilience
In a world filled with challenges, kindness can help us build resilience. Acts of kindness remind us of the good in humanity and can provide comfort during difficult times. Supporting one another through compassion fosters a sense of community and strength, helping us navigate life’s ups and downs together.
Kindness is Powerful
Never underestimate the impact of a single act of kindness. Whether it’s offering a listening ear, sharing a compliment, or lending a hand, these small gestures can profoundly affect someone’s day or even their life. Choosing kindness empowers us to create positive change, no matter how small.
Conclusion
Choosing kindness and respecting others’ opinions—even when we disagree—is essential for fostering understanding, building strong relationships, and promoting a culture of compassion. By engaging in respectful dialogue, we not only enhance our own lives but also contribute to a more harmonious society. Let’s commit to embracing kindness in our conversations, acknowledging that differing opinions can coexist and that respect is key to meaningful dialogue. In a world where we can choose to be anything, let’s choose to be kind.

Finch prefers tee over coffee any day. He actually dislikes the smell of coffee but because so many people around him drink it, he’s gotten used to the smell, still finds it unpleasant.

oh wtf i have visible montgomery's glands (am not and have never been pregnant). had no idea that was a thing with a name. seriously thought it was just hives or something. gotta take this time to thank you for always advocating depiction of realistic bodies cause now I know 🙏
always happy to hear i just always hope that one day we'll live in a world where we dont have to look at pictures of waxed smooth snail-like human bodies to the point where people just Dont know about things common on the body because its seen as ''weird/gross''. because at a point when you start to like, notice the real eworld around you and your own body and how varied we are as people it gets a little sickening sometimes. also i Also have Montgomery glands and so its really nice to go ''well i can either get self conscious about this or draw it in my art and then feel super good about it'' and the answer tis very obvious
