The Moral

Chocolate Molten Cake dessert for two
Layered Devil's Food Cake fluffy and rich
In the center chocolate oozes through

Frozen vanilla ice cream does the trick
A little to cleanse the palate of sweet
Warm chocolate syrup which can bewitch  

Not on my diet, for a taste did cheat
A huge dessert to be shared by just two
Or maybe more, a few bites each can eat

When shared a special dessert's fat won't rue
Eaten with loved ones, savor each morsel
Bid all ill effects a happy adieu

If shared with all at the table, don't gobble
Let sharing fairly be the story's moral

Chocolate can be pronounced with two or three syllables:
chaw-kuh-lit or chawk-lit
