This is what I was looking for. Easy to make and it didn't sink after baking, which I liked. Great served cold with raspberry sauce. I'll top it with a ganache next time.

This cake was amazing, I loved it. It was so very rich that one piece is really enough but you can't stop going back for more. I took the cake out of the oven after the cooking time, the outside had a nice crisp crust and didn't look overdone, (although the top had started to split). However, after it had rested and cooled on a rack and we cut into it, we found that the inside was really gooey and I thought it might have actually been underdone. It didn't matter though, I was looking for a cake that had a fudgey consistency and this fit the bill perfectly! I just hope I can replicate it next time.

Who needs flour in a cake? I was a bit confused by the ingredients and ended up buying unsweetened baking chocolate- so I had to add a cup of Splenda to the batter to make it not taste bitter. Delicious- like a big piece of truffle. Very rich- I had to eat it with ice cream to wash it down.
