RECIPE NOTE FOR MOIST CHOCOLATE CAKE:
If you have any doubts about whether the cake is sufficiently cooked, then you can try a toothpick test. But when doing this test in the bread maker, you should use a longer stick such as a wooden skewer or chopstick because the bread pan is deeper than classic cake pans.
