Ingredients

Cakes

  • 100 g caster sugar
  • 100 g butter
  • 100 g self-raising flour
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 tsp baking powder

Icing

  • 100 g icing sugar
  • 3 tbsp water

Instructions

  • Pre-heat your oven to 180 degrees and put cupcake cases into a 12 hole cake tin.
  • Put all the ingredients into a bowl and mix them all together until you have a smooth cake.
  • Using two teaspoons, fill each cupcake case about 3/4 full then put in the oven for 20 minutes.
  • Once cooked, leave the cakes in the tin for a minute then transfer to a wire rack.
  • Once the cakes have cooled, make your icing by adding a tbsp at a time to the icing sugar until its thick enough that it wont run.
  • Add sprinkles if you want.
