SWEET NUTELLA CHOCOLATE CAKE
Wonderful cake! I chose to divide the batter into three eight inch pans, and reduced the cooking time to 30 mins due to the thinner cakes, instead of the suggested 40 mins in the recipe. I would recommend taking this approach for anyone else who wants to adjust the pans as I did. The cakes were more than cooked through at 30 mins, (I should have checked them at 25 mins I think), so this is just a helpful warning for anyone else doing this adjustment.
