It depends on the intensity and duration of the lick. There is an inverse relation between the time to the center and these two factors.
time to the center = 1/(intensity x lick duration).
The proof of this fact is beyond the scope of this text.

Just three. Don't you remember the commercial? The owl licked the thing 3 times, and then bit it.

Depends on who is doing the licking.
