1 cup strong brewed coffee
¾ cup sour cream
¼ cup vegetable oil

Steps:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour a 9 inch springform pan.

Bake in the preheated oven for 50 to 60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean. Cool for 10 minutes, then remove from pan.
In a microwave-safe bowl, combine caramels and milk. Heat in microwave until melted. Stir until smooth. With a wooden spoon, poke holes into the cake. Pour caramel mixture into holes.
