Chocolate Cheesecake Slice (GF, TMX)

Happy birthday MUM!!

made this today for mum's birthday :) original recipe here

unfortunately even though the skewer came out clean and the slice looked clean, only the outside pieces were cooked and the middle 6-8 pieces were definitely not. in fact when i removed all the pieces around them to put in a container to take to mum's the top half slid off the bottom half of some of the pieces lol the picture above shows the slice on the rack upside down - it's so sloppy in the middle i can't even turn it over!!!

at least what i gave mum was cooked fine :)

so, i doubled the recipe and put it in a quite large tray, but it still came out quite thick, probably 4cm thick. I think next time i would double the cream cheese part (as it was quite thin) and cook 150% of the chocolate part. I'll put the quantities in the recipe for 100%, 150% and 200% ;D

this slice was perfect for gluten free baking, you'd never know it was!
