Where to find ingredients
You'll find these essentials at any major UK supermarket (Tesco, Sainsbury's, Waitrose, or Morrisons). Caster sugar, plain flour, baking powder, and cornflour are standard baking aisle staples. Condensed milk is always in the tinned goods section, usually near the evaporated milk or baking ingredients. For the best result, use a decent quality dark chocolate with at least 50-70% cocoa solids, which you can easily grab from the confectionery or baking aisles.
Preparation method
- Get your oven preheated to 180°C (160°C fan/gas mark
- Whizz the eggs, milk, condensed milk, sugar, butter, flour, cornflour, and baking powder in your blender until the batter is perfectly smooth
- Lightly grease a 22cm round cake tin with a little butter
- Pour half of the batter into your prepared tin and scatter the chopped chocolate evenly over the top
- Pour the remaining batter over the chocolate layer to cover it completely
- Bake for about 40 minutes, or until the cake is golden, firm to the touch, and a skewer comes out clean
- Take it out of the oven, let it cool in the tin for a few minutes, then carefully turn it out to serve
Observations
This is a proper fuss-free recipe, perfect when you're craving a homemade treat without the hassle. By using condensed milk directly in the batter, you achieve a unique, dense, and moist crumb that feels incredibly indulgent, making it a real crowd-pleaser.
