A lovely little tea cake/bread, not overly sweet, also good for breakfast or brunch. It comes from an old cookbook which fell apart and all I have is the rather stained page from the book, which will now join its fellows.

This is a wonderful little cake Kate. I think my springform pan with insert was a little too big because I was only able to get 1 ribbon of filling in and had just enough batter to cover it. It made for a nice, thick, chocolately ribbon in the center-Almost brownie like-YUM! Thanks for sharing. Nick's Mom

    Wonderful cake, your right its not overly sweet which we love. I cut this recipe in half and used 2 small bundt pans(capicity 1 1/2 cup each). For the filling I used a tbsp of sugar, which turned out very nice. Mine baked in 18 minutes. They turned out to be a nice fluffy cake texture. They looked like a giant cupcake. Thanks Kate for another keeper!!

    This has a delicious and very fine crumb, giving it a cake texture without cake flour. We liked that it wasn't very sweet, but some people might want to add a little more sugar to the filling. I made these as muffins (it made a dozen) and baked them for 16 minutes at 375 F. We would have liked even more of the filling!
