I tried the recipe on the day it was posted, but was not too impressed
with the result. I decided to experiment last night, and was happy
with the result- thought I'd share. I added 1 teaspoon of baking
powder to the dry ingredients, and subbed buttermilk for the milk. I
used mini chips to help prevent sinking to the bottom. I also nuked it
for 2.5 minutes, as oppossed to 3. Much better texture- lots lighter
and cake like. Hope this helps you chocoholics!

Thanks. I tried it the other night and while it was ok, I thought the
texture was a bit strange - like a dense sponge.

Thats what I thought too- kinda rubbery. I did do 3 at a time the
first time, and only one last night...don't know if that had anything
to do with it...

Thanks for the tips; I've yet to try the recipe at all, but I think I'll
start with your version ;~D
