Best Chocolate Fondant Cake

Chocoholics, this recipe is made especially for you. 

This is a rich, fudgy, dense cake with a creamy center that gives each bite a different feel. 

A cross between souffle, hot fudge, and cake. Is just amazing.

Some people prefer to bake it in individual ramekins but the downside to this method is that there are no leftovers the next day.

This cake can be stored in the fridge and will still taste amazing as the days pass.

I have a confession: it took me 3 tries to make this post.

Cake #1 was gorgeous – the pictures were taken at sundown and they turned out hideous

Cake #2 I decided to bake in a rectangular loaf pan. Well, I accidentally underbaked it and when I cut it all the fudge came oozing out, the walls of the loaf caved in and it was a disaster. I had to throw it out. Not a good day

Cake #3 is the one you see in the pictures, a gift for my chocoholic grandma

Making the Best Chocolate Fondant Cake is fairly easy. One batter that goes in the oven. The hard part is the bake. Mine was taken out at 40 minutes. It has a slight wobble in the center.

Just remember to get good quality dark and milk chocolate.

Depending on oven yours may take between 38-45 minutes. After taking the cake out, I let it cool for 10 minutes before turning it over into a cake plate. 

You can serve it hot, warm, or cold.

I prefer warm. But that’s entirely up to you.
