5. Bake: Pour the batter into a greased or parchment-lined pan and bake in a preheated oven at 180°C (350°F) for about 30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
6. Prepare the Topping: For the topping, melt the dark chocolate with the hot milk (you can do this in a double boiler or carefully in the microwave).
