Comment préparer Magical Christmas Fairy Cakes Christmas Fairy Cupcakes
- Preheat oven to 190°C (375°F/Gas Mark 5).
- Line a 12-hole mini muffin tin (or two) with silver paper cases for mini cakes, or a 12-hole standard muffin tin with paper cases for larger cakes. Alternatively, grease and flour the tins.
- In a large mixing bowl, cream together 170g softened unsalted butter and 170g caster sugar until light and fluffy. Use an electric mixer or a wooden spoon.
- Beat in 3 large eggs one at a time, then stir in 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract.
- Gently fold in 170g self-raising flour sifted with 1/2 teaspoon baking powder.
- Gradually add 4 tablespoons of milk, folding until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Fill the prepared cases about ¾ full.
- Bake mini cakes for 12-15 minutes, or larger cakes for 18-20 minutes, or until golden brown and a skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let the cakes cool in the tin for 10 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
- While the cakes cool, prepare the icing: In a bowl, whisk together 200g icing sugar with 2-3 tablespoons of water until smooth. Add a few drops of vanilla extract for extra flavor.
- Once the cakes are completely cool, spoon the icing over the tops, letting it drip down the sides.
- Roll out white fondant icing on a lightly sugared surface. Use cookie cutters to create festive shapes (snowflakes, stars, etc.).
- Place a fondant shape on top of each iced cake.
- Sprinkle generously with edible glitter or sparkles.
- Arrange the finished fairy cakes on a serving plate. Enjoy!
