I loved how simple this was but I think its not quite what I had been hoping for. And a bottle of ouzo as suggested below:D Have fun! I scraped a taste of the remains off the parchment paper with a spoon and was quite content after scraping the liner clean, but she cut a small slice and forced me to have some of that. :).

If yes, how many cupcakes would 1 recipe of this batter make, and what would you recommend for the baking time? If youre using honey, I recommend using one thats less strongly flavored. More so than an eggs-and-butter cake. The cake has a really deep chocolate flavor, almost as if removing the dairy and eggs has let that shine through more. I used a double dark cocoa from King Arthur- especially as the recipe read ANY kind of cocoa can be used. This worked out well for me. It didnt even sink back to level! I want to keep that shine, but I also wont have time to make the whole recipe on the same day that Im serving it.

I didnt know how much it would rise so I ended up with a lot of overflow that was (luckily) caught by the cookie sheet I placed the cake pan on top of in the oven. It is all I have. It begged for vanilla ice cream, but againpandemic. This may have been mentioned but Nigella Lawson has a chocolate olive oil cake that can be made gluten-free by substituting almond meal for the flour. Thanks for the great memory! Fabulous!!!!!

I had to kind of spread it- still really good, but I love the way yours sort of drips down the sides. I have made wacky cake for close to thirty years as our younger daughter is allergic to eggs. So many happy memories of eating this cake! What did I do wrong? Abort mission? If you havent been here before know that we are now considered to have been better Chinese food than Hong Kong, so if you like Dim Sum and dumplings plan a few stops. Or are they two different things? My glaze was not a glaze at all but a frosting that wouldnt spread to the edges; it was far too dense. Ive made this cake twice and it is delicious! I love this cake. I got the sinking in the middlewish I had used less baking soda as later suggested. There is also dark corn syrup which is brown. I made the cake for a July 4th barbecue and everyone, vegan or not, LOVED it. I love having a vegan option. The only difference is that today I made it with Dutch Processed Black Cocoa Powder (10% 12% fat). I tried it in a bundt pan, and it was nice but was a small ring. The cake itself was really moist, rich and chocolatey. The bake time is obviously took a bit longer for the thicker cake.. Hope it comes out as stellar as yours looks! Thank you very much!!

I made it at 5pm when I hadnt even started cooking dinner yet and it was incredibly easy. The only thing I had an issue with was that my glaze never made enough to drip down the sides. I may add a bit of vanilla next time. When I checked the cake at one point, it was nearly therea toothpick came out cleanand with a butter cake, I would have stopped there. Its the cake Ive made for 30+ years and now make with my grandsons! I was able to perfectly spread over both cakes. Lovely! Sigh, cant do wine or caffeinated tea either.

The cake tears very easily so be careful when moving it about (but it will also come back together very well if you press the torn bit back in).

Use them often Super moist, and almost melt in your mouth! My only modifications were (a) using 1 tsp baking soda and (b) melting the chocolate before adding the other glaze ingredients, both of which were excellent suggestions from other commenters.

I flipped it upside down and it was fine but I wish Id read these notes before attempting the cake for a dinner party.

If I were to do it again, Id have just done it all in a DIY double boiler, so I could be less paranoid about overheating things. I made this cake as well and it took 10 or so minutes longer to bake than the stated time in the recipe and even then, it was very moist, and more dense and fudgy than I expected I think with this cake it may be better to err on the side of baking over the stated time.

What a quick, easy and delicious dessert to make for friends, especially those who cant eat eggs/are vegan!

Was my first foray into turning a recipe gluten free but it seemed to turn out correct, the cake was super soft and moist and fudgy but airy at the same time (seems contradictory!). Ended up pressing it through a strainer, and gradually adding the liquid back, getting it smooth with each addition. Thanks for another fabulous recipe Deb! With gratitude, ~Virginia H, from Oregon It was so full too, I had great expectations. I did use a different frosting though, so no review on that. Did you bake two cakes or cut one in half? Congrats on your new book. The batter didnt overflow, but it did sink in the middle. Its a great option that way. Thanks! This looks amazing I absolutely need to try this cake!

After reading many of the comments from people who tried this cake, I made it today (with my kids) for my sons 5th birthday. I made it tonight and it totally overflowed my pan! The only problem I had was the glaze got really hard the next day. Turns out perfectly every time. Next time, I think Ill try a salty peanut butter frosting. Perfectly delicious but nothing like the cake is meant to be. Im not sure I understand; you mean, the same kind of cocoa powder? If it sunk in the middle, it wasnt done. But what do I know?? Thanks! :) Id only do a partial swap (1/2 to 3/4 cup) but it might be nice for a grown-up dinner. I ate the part of the cake that fell on to the cookie sheet I placed under the cake pan (saved my oven). I like the bit of sea salt in the glaze! MY FLATMATE JUST MADE THIS AND IT IS GLORIOUS! I had to throw this version out and make a different recipe entirely for my vegan and GF cake. Oh my goodness, this is a keeper. Thanks! Thanks, Deb!

I used light brown sugar, added vanilla, and went with a mix of coffee (1 c) and water (1/2 c). I used some Greek olive oil that came from a specialty market, but next time I will used a milder olive oil I thought it gave a too prominent a grassy, or astringent quality to the cake. Thank you for all of your fabulous recipes! Sigh smells great, looks terrible (huge crater, as others have noticed) and is still in the oven after 45 minutes. The cake collapsed, caved in as it cooled. It makes me think of question I have and a request for help. Me too.
