I love this molten chocolate cake, which I playfully call el mojado, or “the wet one,” because the cake is gooey on the inside. The recipe is easy and almost foolproof. As with any recipe using chocolate, the quality of the chocolate is paramount. Here, I’ve blended two quality chocolates from our friends at Dandelion Chocolate and Rancho Gordo to create a Mexican version of this popular dessert. Add the recommended spices from Burlap & Barrel for a special flavor twist.
