  1. As promised, here is the update to my previous review; I used a deeper baking tin as I think that may have been where disaster befell by last attempt,,,and I still have a perfectly clean oven...<br/>But, more importantly, the taste,,,I replaced the flour with my gluten free flour mix #438139 and used light evaporated milk which really added to the fudginess of the fudge. My husband suggested a couple of drops of brandy or rum instead of vanilla,,,but I think that says more about him than the flavour of the cake. I served it hot with Clotted cream ice cream and it was not only AWESOME but WICKEDLY DIVINE. Thank you Fran for posting.
     
  2. This was delicious and easy. I made two "versions" - one with sugar and one with Splenda. The splenda version did not work as well - not as much fudgy sauce - but tasted great. The sugar version was super. I passed the recipe on to my daughter in college - this one-dish dessert is perfect for her dorm/apartment. Next time I'm going to see if it would work in the microwave....

OH NO :-( I was so relieved to find you had posted it, thank goodness and thank YOU!! It is one of those 'how does it do it?' desserts and boy is it good with vanilla ice cream!!!
