Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 160°C (or 140°C for fan ovens) and line a cupcake tin with 12 fairy cake cases.
  2. In a medium-sized bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until soft and fluffy. Then stir in the vanilla extract.
  3. Mix in the flour and the eggs, a little bit at a time, until you have a smooth, thick cake batter.
  4. Divide the cake mix equally between your cases and bake for 18-22 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean. Transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Topping:

  1. Mix the icing sugar and milk together then stir in the food colouring. Add more milk to make the icing thinner or more icing sugar to make it thicker.
  2. Use a teaspoon to place some icing on top of each fairy cake then add your sprinkles.
  3. Let the icing set then enjoy!

Notes

  • Store in an airtight container for up to 5 days.
