I've got a paid-for DCS sitting in the dealer's warehouse waiting for me. The demolition commences Tuesday (if not tomorrow!) I've NEVER melted chocolate on my soon-to-be land-filled POS Kenny cooktop - totally inadequate and unpredictable temperature control. Mind you, over the next few weeks, I expect I will have many reasons to be consuming lots of 5 Minute Microwave Chocolate Cake....

That sounds more like a pudding cake (a cake you bake that makes its own sauce.) Here is a link that might be useful: Hot Fudge Pudding Cake

I know some adults who might like this too, LOL. Thanks Dee.

Ginger St. Thomas, thanks for searching for me. I hadn't seen that one and it sounds as if it might be the one. Funny how parts of the measurements stick in your mind. Since I always doubled the recipe, 1 1/2 cups sugar always stuck in my mind. the ingredients are the same and I did replace the cream with a mix of half and half and 1%milk. Will let you know if it is THE ONE i'm looking for. MsAzadi, good question and I asked hubby. He sure looked at with a strange look, thought about it for a minute and then said "the hot fudge sauce of course, she's too old for me." Kept looking at me with a strange grin on his face though.
