Best dessert ever?
Call me fickle, but I could never pick one.
I'm a big girl. Just tell me.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica
It's boiled creme in Boston Creme Pie, isn't it?

The "cream" in Boston Cream Pie is traditionally thickened with cornstarch rather than egg yolks, and so is not technically a custard, depending on how pedantic you want to be.

Is it like a cake on the outside, and hot and gooey on the inside, Jilli?
Yessssss.
Now I want one. This is not good.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

I've heard them called Chocolate Lava Cakes and Chocolate Volcano Cakes and they are fantastic.

If I only had a brain...
Want chocolate lava cake. Want nap.
Entertain me, for I have no chocolate nor no nap.

I've always thought of it just as a cream, but I don't think custard is an actual wrong description, Gus. It's thinner--less set, than actual baked custard.

To me, custard flavor + gloopy= custard, but I see what you're saying. (I've never made either custard or Boston Cream Pie myself.)
Cindy, I don't know if a boxed dessert would match what the restaurant does, but I seem to remember seeing a Duncan Hines boxed chocolate lava cake.

Trust my rage
I had a chocolate volcano cake filled with caramel and topped with whipped cream at Cutter's in Seattle. It is my favorite restaurant dessert.
