User Comments:

- "I made this cake for my family's birthday and it was a huge hit. Everyone loved it!"
- "The Tunnel of Fudge Cake was easy to make and didn't take too long. It's definitely a go-to recipe for me now."
Special Precautions and Tips:
- Make sure to whisk the wet and dry ingredients together just until combined. Overmixing can make the cake tough.
- To create the "tunnel" effect, poke a few holes in the top of the cooled cake with a fork or toothpick and pour the fudge sauce over it. The sauce will fill the holes and create a delicious filling.
