By Lakshmi:

I occasionally ponder – If I had no access to chocolate, what would life be like?  Barren, incomplete, lackluster, there is a whole litany of words that I can go through to describe what could become a pretty grave state in my life.

But for today, there is an abundance of chocolate in my life for which I could not be more grateful.  And Chocolate Molten Lava Cake takes a special place as decadent, oozing with chocolate and delight in every bite dessert.  Unfortunately, the dessert is also notorious for packing in the calories.  Not anymore.

The  brilliant cooks at Cooking Light magazine have come up with a way to lighten this recipe without compromising on taste.  A few swaps in ingredients including the incorporation of whole wheat pastry flour produces an amazing product just like the original with an excuse for indulging – don’t I need my fiber count for the day?

It takes a bit of time to prepare, but it is a fool-proof recipe and the results are featured in this post!

If you’d like to indulge, here’s the link to the recipe from Cooking Light.
