New York Chef Jean-Georges Vongerichten is credited with inventing the chocolate lava cake back in 1987. Story has it that he pulled a chocolate sponge cake from the oven before it was completely done. Since there was no time to cook them further, the Chef simply introduced the dessert as chocolate “lava” cake!
