Cruise Passenger Posted February 5, 2007 #53 Share Posted February 5, 2007 Is this a fairly new dessert on Carnival? I don't remember having this a couple of years ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
popcorngal Posted February 5, 2007 #54 Share Posted February 5, 2007 Yes, it's fairly new on the menu. We just got off the Legend yesterday:(, and our waitress said it was so popular, that they decided to offer it every day. I had it every night. The taste is identical to the flourless chocolate cake, and usually the consistency was the same, but some nights it was much more runny. I didn't care...I still wanted to lick the little ramekins out...:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MuffyKismet Posted February 12, 2007 #59 Share Posted February 12, 2007 Well we too fell in love with the chocolate melting cake on our recent cruise. We were shopping at BJ's (like a Sam's club or Costco) and long behold there was a Kit called ...... Chef james Molten Chocolate Lava Cake Kit. the kid INCLUDES 4 porcelain 6oz ramekins, 2 puches of chocolate cake mix and 2 pouches of chocolate lava bits, the picture on the box looks exactly like the dessert on carnival!!! and here is the real kicker.........the whol kie which servers 8 was only $4.00. As you can imagine, I bought a few kits LOL!!! The box says it is Chef James a Division of Xcell International Corp. Westmont, IL 60559 (if some of you don't have a BJ's near you. Good LUCK!! I am going to make it soon.........looks pretty easy per the directions! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DqALEX Posted February 12, 2007 #60 Share Posted February 12, 2007 My wife tried to make it the other night. Well lets say I have another thing to look forward to for my next cruise. You can't beat Carnival the way they cook certain things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jules7226 Posted March 6, 2007 #61 Share Posted March 6, 2007 I am still dreaming of warm chocolate melting cake...they also make a Gluten Free recipie for anyone who has Celiac disease. My hubby is not much of a dessert person but our waiter brought him a GF one on the second night & he LOVED it...had one each night. Would love to find the gluten free version so I can make it for him on Valentines Day Well, it's a little late for Valentines, but there is a website called glutenfreeda.com that has a ton of gf recipes. You may have already heard about it, but they have a wonderful recipe for a flourless chocolate cake that sounds a lot like what everyone on this post is talking about. I'm so glad that they will make a gf version. I can't believe how much more accommodating Carnival has gotten since my first gluten free cruise last May. Thanks for sharing the info. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sparkscruiser Posted March 6, 2007 #62 Share Posted March 6, 2007 I am sooooo sadistic! Went with friends on the last cruise and they fell in love with the cake as well - OK I admit it, I loved it too! So as a way of tormenting her for not going on the next cruise I am compiling all the posts about warm chocolate melting cake to make her crazy!

Cruise Passenger Posted March 6, 2007 #63 Share Posted March 6, 2007 Is this a fairly new dessert on Carnival? I don't remember having this a couple of years ago. I had to reply to my own question. Just back from cruise and oh my gosh!!!! I have a new favorite dessert. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
obx_fintoo Posted March 6, 2007 #64 Share Posted March 6, 2007 I mentioned this on another WCMC thread that didn't last as long. This is the same thing as The Chocolate Stuff as described in the Sweet Potato Queen's Book of Love and also Big-A$$ Cookbook and Financial Planner. March yourself out and buy one of those books, and voila! you have your recipe! This stuff rocks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clgcrusier Posted March 6, 2007 #65 Share Posted March 6, 2007 I just got back from the February 25th sailing of the Liberty. They had this on the menu every night-yum! :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Name game Posted March 6, 2007 #66 Share Posted March 6, 2007 I can't wait to have this chocolate melting cake. Unfortunately I have to wait until November, but I will not forget about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gasman111 Posted March 15, 2007 #67 Share Posted March 15, 2007 This also happened to be our favorite desert. My wife purchased the carnival cookbook but this one was not in there. The maitre d copied a page from their recipies for my wife. 1000 servings Semi sweet chocolate 70# Butter 70# Eggs 700 Sugar 18# Flour 25# Method: Melt chocolate and butter mix half egg and sugar and whisk for few minutes and add flour. then add the balance egg add egg mixture in the remekin cups bake directly in the oven at 200 deg C for 15 to 20 minutes Serve with vanilla ice cream in 2 oz remekin cups Garnish Sweet chocolate chocolate run out powder sugar I am not sure how many cups of sugar or flour are in say .45 pounds of something, but if someone can figure that out and reduce the recipe we would be grateful.

newman12 Posted March 30, 2007 #69 Share Posted March 30, 2007 Here is the official recipe scaled for 10 servings Remember, weight is a more accurate measure than volume (especially with dry ingredients). Just use a kitchen scale and weigh everything instead of measure. It makes things more consistent. :) .7 lbs Semi-sweet chocolate .7 lbs Butter 7 Eggs .18 lbs Sugar .25 lbs Flour Method: Melt chocolate and butter Mix half the eggs and sugar and whisk for a few minutes and add flour, then add balance of eggs Put mixture into ramekins (about 2/3 full) Bake at 390-395 degrees for 15-20 minutes Serve with Vanilla ice cream. I have not made this yet but it may take some fine tweaking on baking time and how full to fill the ramekins. All good things are worth the effort and this dessert is no exception. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oldgram1 Posted April 7, 2007 #71 Share Posted April 7, 2007 I was on 2 Carnival cruises this winter and enjoyed this dessert every time I dined in the dining room....it's great. I have found a very similar tasting product since returning home. It's made by Better Crocker and is very easy. It makes just a 1 serving dish but tastes and looks amazingly like the Carnival dessert. It's about $1.50 to buy. Try it - every time I eat one, I'm reminded of my cruises.

golf43 Posted April 7, 2007 #72 Share Posted April 7, 2007 I tried this chocolate melting cake on our cruise this past week. Oh it is so good. At first I did not know what to expect. I was thinking it was just a piece of chocolate cake. Little did I know. When they brought it out I saw the ice cream with it. After the first bite and then alittle ice cream with that bite, I knew it was the best. I was looking forward to trying that at our first dinner however we did not make it to the dining room the first night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
