After tasting one of these scrumptious desserts, my first reaction was: Why didn’t I ever think of making it this way before?! The pudding is incredible as a molten center for this chocolaty delight, and the cakes are a breeze to make, too!

Ingredients

Cakes

Filling

  • 6 tablespoons instant vanilla pudding mix

  • 3/4 cup pareve milk

  • 3 chocolate sandwich cookies, coarsely crushed, plus additional cookies for garnishing

  • chocolate liqueur or chocolate syrup, for drizzling (optional)

Directions

Prepare the Filling

1.

In a small bowl, combine instant pudding and milk with a fork until smooth and beginning to thicken.

2.

Stir in crushed cookies and mix to combine.

3.

Set aside to stand at room temperature; filling should thicken to a pudding consistency.

Prepare the Cakes

1.

In a small saucepan, combine chocolate chips and pareve milk over low heat, stirring until chips are melted and mixture is smooth. Remove from heat.

2.

Add remaining cake ingredients and stir until batter is smooth.

3.

Pour batter into prepared ramekins, filling about halfway. Add two tablespoonfuls of pudding filling to the center of each ramekin.

4.

Divide the remaining batter evenly among the six ramekins, making sure to completely cover the pudding filling. The cakes will not rise very much during baking, so if they’re pretty full, it’s fine.

5.

Place the ramekins on a baking sheet and bake for 17–18 minutes, or until the cakes are just set; remove from oven.

6.

Invert cakes onto small dessert plates, drizzle with chocolate liqueur or syrup if desired, and garnish with crushed sandwich cookies.

7.

Meanwhile, preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit (180 degrees Celsius). Prepare six four-ounce (110-gram) ramekins by spraying with cooking spray and dusting with flour; tap out excess flour.

Tips:

If you want to make this in advance, you can prepare the cakes raw, freeze them, and thaw to room temperature before baking. Allow an extra two to four minutes of baking time.

You can either undercook them or leave them raw and bake while you eat your main.

They didn’t taste great. They didn’t look great. The only ppl who liked it was the chocolate lovers.

Sounds better than it tastes I’m not sure what all the hype was about with these. We found them very average/ a bit lacking in flavour.
They definitely look better than they taste. I won’t say they’re inedible, but definitely won’t be making again.

Didnt come out for me Looks yummy but mine didn’t come out good, Im not sure what I did wrong but I followed the recipe. I think I might have overcooked the chocolate chips and the vanilla pudding didn’t thicken (I used the Israeli instant kind)

Oy. That’s disappointing.
