Lemon Lava Cake Recipe

Matt has been asking me to make something with lemon and I’m finally fulfilling his request. I love chocolate lava cake and I make it quite often so I figured, why not try a Lemon Lava Cake made in a similar fashion? Hmmmm!

It did not disappoint, this turned out so good! Every bite was an explosion of lemon in my mouth. Matt even declared that this was the best cake I’ve ever made!
