This recipe is simple and one of the best things I know. YES underbaking is a thing for this cake. Its supposed to be moist and a little runny on the inside. Let it sit for a day and itll be even better the next.
You most likely have all the ingredients in your cabinet already so if you need a last minute dessert this is the way to go. It bakes fast too. And just served with whipped cream and berries and/or ice cream. You can not go wrong! You can make on big cake or like I did muffin size! Minis work as well.
Add chocolate chips of any sort. Some chopped nuts or maybe coconut if you want otger flavorings. Peanutbutter swirl or nutella 😍 ( makes 10-12)
