Am I the only one who feels like this summer has flown by? I blinked and it’s August. Since school let out back in June we have tried to squeeze in as much family fun as possible. We have visited the mountains of Virgina and the beaches of North Carolina and then last week we all boarded the Carnival Fantasy compliments of Carnival and took off for for 5 days to the beautiful blue Bahamas for our last big hoorah before school starts back in 11 days (not that I’m counting or anything ehem). This warm chocolate Nutella melting cake is what’s helping me get over my end of summer blues and I think it will help you too.

If you’ve never taken a Carnival cruise I highly recommend it. This was our second Carnival cruise and definitely not our last. Besides being an amazing value, it’s family friendly, there’s something for all ages and well let’s be honest there is food and drinks (Miami Vice anyone?) at pretty much your beck and call (hello room service) 24/7. Naturally I want to tell you all about the food first because well hello FOOD and travel blog.

Carnival is known for their Warm Chocolate Melting Cake. Chef de Cuisine told me they make thousands of these A DAY. That’s a whole lot of chocolate and butter people. I am not going to tell you how many we consumed because on vacation calories don’t count. Please don’t burst my bubble. It’s not for the faint of chocolate heart. It’s rich, dark and decadent and begs for a scoop of fresh vanilla bean ice cream. Once you take a bite it’s hard to stop. Not that I would know or anything. Sigh.

Luckily they shared their recipe with me so I can share with YOU. Naturally I tweaked it just a bit because well everything tastes better with Nutella. Amen.

    Yum! I’ve been on A LOT of Carnival Cruises (ok… like 11) and the one thing I order every night after dinner is the warm chocolate melting cake. Some nights I order that and another dessert only because I HAVE to HAVE at least one bite of the warm ooey-gooey goodness! Your version looks fab! Glad to read you guys had a great trip!

    well, I don’t really know what to say except this isn’t very nice of you to post. Don’t you know I try to only eat treats once a week? I am dying to make this tonight and watch a movie but I just know it will seriously become an every night thing. Seriously gorgeous and delicious! I just want one every night!!!

    Being veg, I’ll probably adapt this with Ener G egg replacer, Earth Balance margarine, Rawtella hazelnut spread and Sunspire chocolate. Great spin on a favorite, Paula!
