I have made this the conventional method and this method (obviously) and the only comment that I can make is that it would be nice to have a little more chocolate sauce.

cookie1 - I made this exactly to the recipe and found it to be really nice. The coffee in it gave it a slight mocha flavour.
My only complaint was that I broke the timer and then I burnt it slightly. So even with a little extra browning it is very nice.
DizzyGirl - Just had this for dessert and it was lovely even though the sauce was not existent once cooked. Might try and make a sauce in TMX as suggested.
snappy - I've made this one for dessert tonight although I've simplified it a little. I just threw it all into the thermomix at once and mixed on speed 6 for about 20 secs - I figured if it was good enough for ILB chocolate cake. Brilliantly quick and simple dessert.
