As I boil grain rather than steaming it, that's not the issue
for me; but I don't do "that" kind of cooking except on rare
occasions, when the nuke and some cheap plastic wrap do an
okay job, with the defects fixable by a small investment of
attention.

chocolate substitute some cocoa for part of the flour and add grated
chocolate into mix.
Jean Greenwood needed longer cooking time.
