can you make a lava cake in a bundt pan instead of individual ones?

Question

I have found plenty of lava cake recipes but they are all in individual sizes

Answer 1

You can make it in a cake pan, like an 8x8 or a loaf pan. I don't think a bundt pan would work too well, it's a gooey cake and would be hard to get out of the pan. You can make it in any oven safe dish like custard dishes or small casserole dishes too.

Answer 2

Yes indeed! Here is the original "Lava Cake"!

TUNNEL OF FUDGE CAKE

CAKE:
1 ¾ cup sugar
1 ¾ cup margarine or butter, softened
6 eggs
2 cups XXX sugar
2 ¼ cups A/P flour
¾ cup unsweetened cocoa
2 cups chopped walnuts**
GLAZE:
¾ cup XXX sugar
¼ cup unsweetened cocoa
4-6 Tbsp. milk

Heat oven to 350°F. Grease and flour 12-cup Bundt® pan or 10-inch tube pan. In large bowl, combine sugar and margarine; beat until light and fluffy. Add eggs 1 at a time, beating well after each addition. Gradually add 2 cups powdered sugar; blend well. By hand, stir in flour and remaining cake ingredients until well blended. Spoon batter into greased and floured pan; spread evenly.

Bake at 350°F. for 45 to 50 minutes or until top is set and edges are beginning to pull away from sides of pan.** Cool upright in pan on wire rack 1 1/2 hours. Invert onto serving plate; cool at least 2 hours.

In small bowl, combine all glaze ingredients, adding enough milk for desired drizzling consistency. Spoon over top of cake, allowing some to run down sides. Store tightly covered.
