I used to make this from the Hersheys cookbook. Excellent just as directed.

I really like this recipe but my fiance thought it was lacking something. It's a good recipe for when you want a fast dessert because chances are you have all of the ingredients on hand. Thanks for sharing!

This is the exact recipe that my mother made when I was a kid. It is good with any kind of ice cream, but makes an extremely fantastic combo with homemade vanilla ice cream!! The best "volcano" cake substitute there is! Thanks for posting.

This is my favorite! Definately have to have it with ice cream. My Grandma used to make this for me when I would come and visit, I always thought she slaved for hours to make it. Who knew it was this easy?!

This is the same recipe we use that's part of our family collection - just like molten chocolate cake.
