DCB Recipe #7: Lava Cake

If you make this once, I promise that it will become your go-to, in a pinch dessert for all of your dinner parties and potlucks. And it is customizable, just change up the cake mix and icing for many different variations. Devil's Food Cake with fudge icing is one of the Rev's favorites, so of course, I made one for Valentine's Day last week.

Lava Cake

Cake mix of your choice plus ingredients needed to prepare cake (see back of box)
1 can of frosting

Spray Deep Covered Baker with oil. (Once your stone is seasoned, this step is not necessary.)

Prepare a cake mix according to the package directions and pour batter into baker. (I usually mix mine right up in the baker)

Dollop a can of frosting all over the top of the cake batter.

Microwave, uncovered, 11-12 minutes. (If microwave does not rotate, turn ½ way through baking time.)

Scoop into bowls and top with ice cream or cool whip.
