Serves
15
½ Tbsp lemon juice
½ cup milk
¼ cup oil
125g dark chocolate, roughly chopped
½ cup hot, strong coffee (can be instant)
1c standard flour
1 tsp baking soda
½ tsp baking powder
½ cup Chelsea Caster Sugar
¼ cup cocoa
1 egg
1 tsp caramel essence
Pre heat oven to 170*C (150° fan bake). Line cupcake trays with paper cases.
Mix the lemon juice and the milk together and set aside for the milk to sour.
Place oil and chocolate into a mixing bowl. Pour over the hot coffee. Stir until the chocolate is melted and the mixture is smooth. Add Caramel essence. Cool.
In a large bowl sift the flour, baking soda, baking powder, sugar and cocoa together.
Add the egg to the cooled chocolate mixture. Whisk in well.
Add this to the dry ingredients alternately with the soured milk. Whisk to combine thoroughly.
Pour into paper cases and bake for approx 18 minutes or until top feel firm to touch,
Fudgy crumbs will still adhere to the skewer when tested.
Cool for 5 minutes in the tray before removing to cool further on a wire rack.

LOVE THIS RECIPE! Make them all the time :)
Since Caramel Essence is getting harder to find, is there a substitute we could use for the caramel flavour?

Sounds fantastic but what is the soured milk please.
CHELSEA: the soured milk is the lemon juice and the milk mixed together (mentioned earlier on in the method).
