Molten Chocolate Love

This is my hands-down favorite chocolate dessert.  It takes less than 10 minutes to throw together, I always have the ingredients on hand and the results are heavenly.  It's kinda like a flourless cake...but with flour  (hahahaha) but it does have a luscious molten chocolate core.  I prefer to let my pot o chocolate love cool for awhile to let that molten goodness solidify into a lovely ganache consistency.  That and I like the roof of my mouth - molten chocolate + me = 2nd degree burns.  One cannot fully enjoy their chocoliciousness if they have burned off the lining in their mouth.
