Does it seem like this guy is interested in me just as a friend or as something more?

Hi everyone. I just got out of a relationship a couple of months ago. I haven’t gone on any dates and am not really actively trying to, but I am wondering if this guy I know is interested in me. We met a few years ago in college. We are both mid twenties now. We’ve always been friends on social media, but never really close friends in real life. He responded to one of my Instagram stories a few weeks ago and we have been chatting back and forth ever since. We went out for coffee a couple of weeks ago and ended up caching up and talking for a few hours. When he texts me, he seems super engaged - messages are long, he asks questions, etc. But, he will randomly stop responding or will wait hours (and sometimes even a day or two) to text me back. I made some cupcakes this weekend and posted them on Facebook. He asked if he could have some, and I said he could come over and sample them. He then asked me what kind of sweet stuff I liked. I told him that lately I really liked hot chocolate lately. So he came over tonight and I gave him some cupcakes. He ended up surprising me and giving me a nice tin of hot chocolate mix in exchange for the cupcakes. He also stayed and we chatted and talked for about 3 hours. I’m still not sure what the vibe of our hangouts is. I don’t know if he sees this as more of a friend thing or possibly more? What do you all think? Also, what would you do to amp up the flirting or to gauge his interest? Thanks!
