The reviewer who said 'gummy' was right; too bad she expected something else. When we cook other people's recipes, we should be more open to what comes out. Pretty sure the cake was supposed to be 'gummy'- it is similar to a fruitcake filling, and reminiscent of Little Deb brownies as far as texture. Quite nice dipped in coffee, and I feel would accept additions about as well as a fruitcake. This cooks up firm and can be immediately removed from the pan, though I'd wait the typical 5-10 then remove it to a rack. Throw nuts on top before the bake, just like LD- only thicker in the the 8x9 I used.
