OH, it didn't knock my socks off but still good. I definately followed advice to melt chocolate chips last and glad I did because it was hardening before it made it in the oven. Also I doubled that part of the recipe and glad I did. More chocolate chips and more sweetened condensed milk because the cake part of it was nothing special. It was easy to make and tasty I just don't think I'll make this one again.

This recipe tastes absolutely wonderful, but be warned that it is very rich. This is an easy-to-make recipe. The only problem with the recipe is that you should save step 3 until the very end when your batter is already in your bowl, because the chocolate chip-sc milk combo hardens very quickly and if you heat it first you have to remelt it when it's time to add it on top.
