Tips
When making this decadent dessert, there are a few ingredient substitutions you can try to customize it to your liking or accommodate dietary restrictions. For a twist on the classic dark chocolate lava cake, you can experiment with different types of chocolate like milk or white chocolate. If you're not a fan of bananas, consider substituting the caramelized banana ice cream with another fruit-based ice cream like strawberry or coconut. For a gluten-free option, you can use crushed gluten-free cookies instead of chocolate cookie crumbs. Lastly, if you don't have raspberry sauce on hand, you can try substituting it with another fruit sauce like strawberry or blackberry.
