Finally add the Jack Daniels (Dark rum is a good alternative)
Pour the very liquid cake mix into an 18inch x 10inch tin,greased & lined with baking parchment.
Bake for 25-30 min on 190c/ Gas 5. Baking tme depends on how gooey you like your cake to be & how powerful your oven is. Check sponge firmness after 25min, if it springs back up when pressed lightly it's done! 30min should give you a little sticky texture to the bottom of the cake.
Cool on a rack then remove the parchment, cut into 16 squares.
If you store it in the fridge, chilling it makes the sticky bit become firmer!
