Boozy Chocolate Lava Cakes made with Cabernet Sauvignon. So delicious and so EASY to make! The perfect dessert for any chocolate lover!
11 days until Christmas. . I can’t believe it.
Lately, I’ve been feeling super thankful for my husband, our girls, our friends, our health and I’m excited to be seeing my family soon for the holidays.
Whenever we get together, I will cook or bake something . . or bring something that I’ve already baked. My sister complains that she’s gaining weight because of all my delicious food . . but she goes back for more anyway. 🙂 This year, we’re doing prime rib and I’m going to make my 
My family and I love a good bottle of wine. I love both reds and whites, but for dessert I’m a red drinker all the way.
Especially when there’s chocolate involved. And fresh raspberries.

Boozy Chocolate Lava Cakes
Ingredients
- 1 to 1 ½ teaspoons granulated sugar; for the ramekins
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter one stick, cubed
- 2 ounces good quality semisweet chocolate chopped
- 2 ounces good quality bittersweet chocolate chopped
- 1 cup confectioners' sugar; sifted
- 2 eggs
- 2 egg yolks
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 1 ½ tablespoons entwine Cabernet Sauvignon
- 6 tablespoons all purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400 degrees. Grease the bottom and sides of four 6-oz. ramekins and sprinkle each with a little sugar. (This will help you remove the lava cakes from the ramekins easier). Place ramekins on a baking sheet and set aside.
- Using a medium-sized microwave-safe bowl, microwave the butter and chopped chocolate in :30 increments until melted. Whisk until smooth. Stir in the confectioners' sugar until completely smooth. Then, add the eggs, egg yolks, vanilla and entwine Cabernet Sauvignon.
- Next, stir in the flour and salt. Mix well until completely incorporated and then spoon the batter into the prepared ramekins.
- Bake for about 13 to 15 minutes or until the cake sides are somewhat firm and the centers are soft. Remove ramekins to a wire rack to cool for about 5 to 7 minutes. Carefully run a small knife around the edges of the cakes to loosen. Invert the warm cakes onto serving plates. Carefully lift the ramekins off the cakes. Serve warm with fresh berries and more entwine Cabernet Sauvignon!
