Notes

  • Use a springform pan for the best results.
  • We cook for 18 minutes on the center rack, but the cake will get a bit gooier if you cook between 15-17.
  • Make sure to allow for a proper cooling time.
  • Raspberry sauce is optional, but any good chocolate topping would be great. Ice cream, whipped cream, or even just a dab of cream would be good on this recipe.
  • Store in refrigerator once cooled.
  • Calorie count INCLUDES 1/8 of the raspberry sauce
