I found a recipe for Molten Chocolate Lava Cakes, but at 62 grams of fat EACH, I think we'll be giving them a pass:

Molten Chocolate Lava
Recipe #26237
Recipe from reds bistro & bar, Toronto, Ontario
by Mille® ™

5 servings 29 min 15 min prep

2 1/2 cups dark semi-sweet chocolate
1 1/3 cups unsalted butter, melted
1/3 cup cornstarch, plus
2 tablespoons cornstarch
2 3/4 cups sugar
7 eggs
8 egg yolks
2 tablespoons Grand Marnier

Chop chocolate into small pieces.
Melt butter and pour over chocolate.
Whisk together until the chocolate is completely melted.
Whip eggs and egg yolks together with an electric mixer for 1 minute.
Mix sugar and cornstarch together and add to eggs; whip until frothy (approximately 4 minutes).
Add Grand Marnier liqueur.
Add melted chocolate and blend together.
Fill 5 4-inch ramekins ¾ full and bake at 425°F for 14 minutes.
Serve immediately (any leftover mix will keep in the fridge for 5 days).

Better yet, you can purchase a dozen of lava cakes in various flavors (in the filling) at the dough monkey - at $54 per dozen.
