Made exactly as written for your Football Pool win & to serve guests as dessert for a dinner party last night. I served it w/a lrg dollop of whipped cream & garnished w/fresh mint from our balcony garden. This was an easy-fix plus very dense & moist. I did have to bake it closer to 40 min than the 20-30 min stated in the prep before it tested done. When out of the oven, I let it cool until just warm to the touch & then inverted it on my serving platter. It slipped easily & perfectly out of the baking pan. Delicious & well-received. Congrats on your FP win. :-)
