Caramel centres...

Almost anything can instantly be transformed from average to A-mazing with the help of gooey caramel, am I right? That is why I keep a can of Nestle's caramel 'top and fill' in the cupboard for baking emergency's. When asked to deliver the 'baked' goods at work recently, I decided plain old chocolate cupcakes just wouldn't cut it! So I jazzed it up a little...

Step 1: Mix a batch of chocolate cake mix.

Step 2: Transfer 1 tablespoon of mixture into each patty case.

Step 3: Spoon a teaspoon of caramel filling into the centre of each patty case (or as in this case add a few chocolate drops too! You can never have enough chocolate).


Step 4: Transfer another tablespoon of cake mixture over the top.


Step 5: Bake in a moderate oven for about 15-20 minutes until the top of each cupcake bounces back when you press it lightly.


Note: Be careful not to get too excited and fill each patty case more than 2/3 of it's capacity. This will only cause the cupcakes to spill over the edges and increase cooking time, which can cause the chocolate/caramel filling to dissolve into the cake mix.
