New Taste Thinking:

I like this recipe because it is quick, easy and delicious. I serve a slice of the loaf with a few berries or apple slices.
You may notice that this dessert does not taste so great the next day. This is because of its low fat content. The wonderful moisture in this cake comes from steam that is trapped inside of the curst as it is cooked, not unlike a soufflé.
These items need to be eaten warm because as they cool off they dry out.
You can quickly freeze the left over slices and eat them frozen which changes the texture and they do taste pretty good.

Have you ever wondered why a cookie or brownie sitting on a shelf at a convenient store stays so moist? The answer is, lots of fat.
