I wonder whether the shape of the tin had something to do with the dip too, just because the cooking time will be a bit different. That said, the recipe does say it might dip so maybe it's the recipe as well.<br /><br />I did put the coffee in, you can't really taste it (I reckon I could just about tell it's there, maybe!) but I think it probably stops the cake being too sweet as there's a lot of sugar in it.jenniferluciehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02162288706407286054noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6102847380459720699.post-83022077624660887032012-02-14T22:13:08.860+00:002012-02-14T22:13:08.860+00:00Nice cake! I'm not a fan of Valentines day eit...Nice cake! I'm not a fan of Valentines day either. Why set aside one day for being romantic when you can be romantic every day without the clichés, gimmicks and expense!<br /><br />It has dipped rather a lot in the middle! Perhaps it was a little undercooked or maybe there was too much raising agent as I think that can make things sink too?<br /><br />Did you include the coffee from the recipe on the website? If you did can you taste it and what difference does it make? Personally I'd just leave the coffee out as if you can't taste it its pointless and if you can taste it in the finished cake I'd still leave it out as I don't like coffee. <br /><br />The chocolate fingers around the outside work. I had them around a birthday cake I had once, I think that was a mint and chocolate one though.<br /><br />Ohh and I definitely would prefer it in a round tin...Grahamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16499722627577831001noreply@blogger.com
