Notes

This cake is supposed to be gooey/fudgy in the middle so you don't want to overbake it.
I tend to take it out after 30 mins. of baking it continues to bake as it cools.
Best served warm but you can also eat it at room temperature or warm up in the microwave for a few seconds.
Keeps well on counter covered for up to 4 days or in fridge up to a week.  I don't recommend freezing it.  It won't last long anyway.
