The top layer was nice and fluffy. A good flavor. Not to sweet. I think mine could have cooked for another five minutes. It seemed like it was very fragile, almost like a souffle. When I went to scoop it up I was worried it would flop. That is why I think more time would have set it up better. I pulled it out at 40 minutes.

Quite tasty....i made a few changes to the leftover by adding crumbled brownies and served it chilled.

Wonderful cake! I remember my mother making something like this when I was a child (I am 48 years old, so you know that was some time ago!), and this lives up to the memory. The cake was as light as foam and the pudding layer was very creamy and delicate. Not too sweet, either. Thank you for sharing this.
