Messy Chocolate Cake

Hi everyone,
I'm always on the look out for good scrumptious recipes and one dish that my husband often asks me for is chocolate cake. So last Friday I googled for a chocolate recipe that could use oil (as I'd run out of unsalted and baking butter.) I found a recipe that looked full proof and it was- I just happen to have a very temperamental oven (it was here when we brought our flat- not my choice...)
I used the above recipe as a base and although the outcome wasn't what I initially anticipated given my temperamental oven, it still tasted delicious! Even my husband loved it!
The difference in my recipe versus this one is that I used a tray bake tin and didn't cover the cake in ganache. That and with my temperamental oven it came out a bit on the flat side hence the name 'Messy Chocolate Cake'.
Do you have a signature chocolate cake recipe that you follow? What are your tips? Do you bake with your families? Let us know in the comments.
Enjoy!
