Chili’s is fast becoming one of my favorite weekend hangouts. Besides the fact that their margaritas come in huge glasses, I love the items on their dessert menu. I’m not sure if you’re supposed to mix sugar with alcohol and I have to admit that they don’t really taste great together, but there are times when I crave for something sweet in the middle of a drinking session. Last weekend I discovered that Chili’s had a molten chocolate cakes on their menu, flourless cakes with melted chocolate cake that oozes out like lava when you cut it in the middle. I’ve had a chocolate molten cake in Boracay, so I picked out the white chocolate molten cake to see if it’s any good.
Chili’s white chocolate molten cake is topped with vanilla icing inside a crunchy white chocolate shell and seasoned with white chocolate curls and raspberry sauce. The first bite was absolutely heavenly – I love how ice cream and a warm cake tastes together. This is definitely a dessert that you need to share with someone because the cake is too big to finish by yourself, and it only takes a couple more bites for your throat to start getting itchy from all that sugar. It’s still a good way to get your sugar fix satisfied. Maybe if it had chocolate ice cream instead of vanilla, it wouldn’t feel like too much of a white chocolate overdose.
Holy ishh, that cake could satisfy my sugar-fix for two days! I mean look at that, it’s so decadent (which already tells a lot about the price I think).
I was wondering if you could make that at home? The only problem is where to get a molten cake that’s already made. I wonder if you could still buy Whammos at the grocery?? :p

White chocolate originates from the cocoa (cacao) plant, but it is not ‘chocolate.’ According to the FDA, to be called ‘chocolate’ a product must contain
chocolate liquor, which is what gives it the biter intense chocolate flavor (and color) to dark and milk chocolates.
