I've made this cake multiple times, and have never had a problem with it baking. Yes, the batter is a bit thinner than one might be used to, because of the coffee. Anytime people have problems with baking times, they need to know their oven. Have you calibrated it? Some ovens run hotter or lower than others. Hopefully, the cake turned out. This recipe is tested by my family, and is always our favorite chocolate cake.

I'm making your cake now, and it's been in for 20min and is quite uncooked....we're leaving it for another 5min, but any tips? we think we followed it to a 'T', but it was very runny batter (we thought the coffee perhaps was supposed to be just the grinds?

In BIG RED LETTERS, if you look, at the top right of my blog I say where to click if you can't see my recipes.<br />Second, can you read that all over my blog, including the comment box that I give you my email? I am very available to my readers. I hope you can work through your anger, and practice a little kindness.
