Notes

Serve warm in a mini cast-iron skillet for maximum ooze-factor—as experienced at Melt n Dip Ballwin.

Use Belgian chocolate for an authentic depth of flavor.

Try remixing the recipe with additional toppings like lemon cheesecake chunks or a cookie dough core.

Preparation takes under 1 hour—ideal for indulgent weeknights or dessert guests.
