Ingredients
Method
Preheat the oven to 180°C/Fan 160°, Gas 4.
Heat the milk until boiling and stir in the coffee until dissolved.
Combine the butter, Lyle’s Golden Syrup®, Tate & Lyle® Light Soft Brown Sugar, flour, cocoa and eggs with the coffee mixture in a bowl. Beat together with an electric whisk for about 1 minute until soft and creamy.
Divide the mixture between the paper cases and bake on the middle shelf of the oven for 18-20 minutes until well risen and they spring back when lightly pressed with a finger.
For the topping, dissolve the coffee in the boiling water then stir in the Lyle’s Golden Syrup®.
Transfer the cupcakes to a wire rack to cool. Peel off the paper cases, lightly poke all over with a fine skewer, then push the cakes down a little into the coffee cups. Drizzle over the coffee syrup mixture and leave to soak in for a few minutes.
Lightly whip the cream in a bowl until soft peaks form. Spoon on to the cakes and, using a small palette knife, lightly spread the cream to the edges of the cups. Spoon a little cocoa into a small sieve, place the coffee stencil on top of the cream and lightly dust with the cocoa. Repeat with the rest of the cakes, place on coffee saucers and serve.
