Reviews
“This cake was a bit surprising… mine was actually still a bit sopping wet on the sides even after an extra 5 minutes of baking.The family liked the flavor but not really the consistency.Not our cup of tea but it may be yours so don’t let this stop you from trying it!Make for Zaar Cookbook Tag 08”
“This is very easy & quick.Nice pudding on the bottom.The cake is a teensy dry but all my tasters loved it.the dryness is because it is so low fat – only two tablespoons for the whole cake, that’s amazing!So I served it with some whipped cream and it was great!”
