This was ok but I really think 15 mins is too long. We have a fairly low wattage microwave and I wish I'd taken it out of the microwave at about 12 mins because it ended up over cooked and a bit too dense for my liking.

With a glass dish, I could see this separating into cake and sauce through the window of the microwave, which was pretty cool. I tried a similar recipe for the conventional oven once that separated into cake and chocolate pudding; this was more cake and a fudgy sauce that were quite good, especially for a microwave dessert. I took it out after 14 minutes, but I think I could have checked it after 12 or 13 when it started to smell cooked. Microwaves vary so much. I think this amount could be a lot more than 4 servings, especially if you serve with ice cream.
