Domino’s employee shares recipe for Chocolate Lava Cake at home

On TikTok, a former Domino’s employee shared the surprising process behind making the beloved chocolate lava cake sold at the chain.

The video became viral and has garnered more than 135,000 views. It features Maze, who describes herself as a “foodie”, sharing her secret recipe with her followers.

“She started by saying that she used to be employed at the top pizza franchise globally and proceeded to share the recipe for their popular Chocolate Lava Crunch Cake that can be made at home.”

Maze proceeded to disclose the ‘secret’ ingredient that gave the cake its unique flavor. “What makes these stand out is the Dutch or black cocoa powder,”she disclosed.

Next, Maze dusted the ramekins with a mixture of cocoa powder and granulated sugar. Following this step, she whisked up some eggs and carefully folded them into a mixture of butter and chocolate. She then added a ball of chocolate ganache before placing the ramekins in the oven. In no time, the delectable treats were ready to be enjoyed.

After all was said and done, the cakes were indistinguishable from the ones sold at Domino’s.

“The outcome left customers equally amazed, with one writing: “These are even better than Domino’s lava cakes.”

“Another enthusiastic viewer added, “I can’t believe how much I’ve been craving these!”

Despite the curiosity of many about the process of making chocolate ganache balls, one person simply explained, “Guys, it’s just chocolate and heavy cream. Let it cool, shape it into a ball, and cool it again – that’s all it takes to make ganache balls.”

Maze has previously shared her method for recreating Domino’s pizzas at home. In February, she demonstrated to her audience how to achieve the ideal pizza.
