You must have had it at school. It's like a really rock hard chocolate cake although sometimes it is a bit soft depending on who cooked it i think.

It is fantastic.

We used to call it "sh*t with sugar on" when we had it at school ... it was always served with pink or green custard which usually had a two-inch thick skin on top.

[nutcracker]

I hated the custard.

[WigWamBam]

The pink stuff was particularly vile, the mint was marginally better but that's not saying much!
