    I followed the Donna Hay recipe from the book and cooked it at 170 degs instead of 180, in a springform pan and covered with foil.  Cooked it for about 45 mins.  Wasnt set in middle however pretty sure thats how its suspose to be as it sets overnight in the fridge.  It gives it a fudgy consitency.  Thanks for the conversion of this delicious cake.

    Thankyou for this recipe, it was amazing. I undercooked it by about 10mins and it was like a mousse cake, with cream drizzled over it. It was applauded by all.

    This was AWESOME!  Thanks for the conversion.  tmrc_emoticons.-)

    The original recipe says to use a springform tin and to put a piece of foil over the pan while cooking.  That will stop it from burning.  It also says to cool it in the tin as the cake is meant to be fudgy so it needs to set.  tmrc_emoticons.-)

    Yummy cake!  And easy! After reading other comments I went  the middle of the road & set oven timer for 50 minutes. Soon after 40 something mins  I could smell burning. (Just the edges). And it was still a tiny bit gooey on inside.  Next time I would lower the oven temp. But would make again, thanks!

    Submitted by rmgrant on 17. October 2013 - 12:53.

    I made this last night for a friend's birthday cake. I cooked it for 40 mins to be on the safe side. A skewer inserted came out clean so I thought it was cooked, but when we cut it about 2 hours later it was still a bit gooey in the centre. However, that just added to the choclatey, gooey yumminess! A very decadent cake for die-hard chocaholics.
