I use the edmonds receipe for a plain old chocolate and every time it never cooks in the middle.I have to end up cooking it for about 30-40 minutes longer than stated but then the outside starts to burn.I use a round tin and place it on the middle rack in the oven.Any ideas as to why this happens!

I would check elements in your oven.

Maybe it's best with a ring tin! - I always found that recipe doesn't have a very chocolatey taste, maybe if you put extra cocoa in it it might cook differently!

Is the cake tin the correct size for the recipe!If it is too small the cake will be too deep and won't cook through.

You could try cooking it on a lower heat for longer.! I tried a new choc cake recipe the other day (a larger cake than I'm used too) and after the correct time, it was still wet in the middle. So I turned the oven down and left it in for quite a while longer checking on it. It was good:)
