Tips for Making Gooey Chocolate Pudding Cake

* Use high-quality chocolate. The better the chocolate, the better the cake will taste. * Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing will make the cake tough. * Bake the cake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with just a few moist crumbs attached. Overbaking will make the cake dry. * Let the cake cool completely before serving. This will allow the flavors to develop and the cake to set.
