These did NOT bake up well for me at all. The batter looked beautiful until the cup of boiling water was called for. They overflowed and made a mess of the oven.
I would recommend trying the recipe without the cup of water -- I bet they'll be great!

This cake is awesome and sooo moist! I have never had a problem with it over-flowing and I've made it several times and in serveral different size pans. It has almost a pudding cake texture and taste. People never even know it's whole grain until I tell them. It makes great cupcakes too. Rich and dark, I can't say enough good things about this recipe! Don't let the other reviews turn you off, you'd be missing out!

I bastardized this recipe a lot; used Spelt, Buckwheat & Chickpea flour with a little ground Hazlenut. Halved it, added more egg, skipped the boiling water adding Orange juice and Yoghurt instead and baked in large ramekins for 25 mins. Turned out fantastic!

I made this recipe with oil and only 1 cup of demerara sugar, no water. The texture was pleasant and fluffy but is just another choc cake , nothing extraordinary about it. Next time i will add some nuts, poppy seeds or figs perhaps to jazz it.

This recipe needs to be re-written, when baking the batter overflowed. Luckily I had a pan of water underneath to catch the rubbish, or my oven could have caught on fire.

I did what Chef suggested and didn't add the boiling water. I decided to add oil instead of butter. And OMG! This came out so well, my family asked to make another batch of cupcakes for them! LOL
This is staying in my box to make again, and again, and again.
Thanks OrganiKiss Catering!

Great cake! It baked well and tastes great. I baked a little longer (in a 150-160 degree celsius oven) and the recipe ingredients said butter but this was not in the directions (but oil was..?)- I used the butter (no oil) and it turned out well. Definitely will make again- thanks for the recipe.
