Recipe Information
Step by step guide to making Cadbury mini egg cupcakes
- Preheat the oven to 190°C, fan 170°C, gas mark 5. Place 12 paper cases into a 12 hole muffin tin.
- Cream together 100g of the spread and the caster sugar until light and fluffy, then add the eggs one at a time and beat well. Fold in the sieved flour and cocoa.
- Place spoonfuls of the mixture into the cases to fill three-quarters full and bake for 15-18 minutes until risen and springy to the touch. Place onto a wire rack to cool.
- Cream the remaining 100g of the spread for the icing until fluffy and then add the sieved icing sugar and cooled melted chocolate. Mix together until well combined.
- Spread the icing over the cakes evenly using a palette knife, or other blunt edged knife.
- In a small bowl combine the coconut and the food colouring, stirring it until all the coconut is coloured evenly.
- Sprinkle a teaspoon of the green coconut on top of each cake so it sticks to the icing and finish off with 2 mini eggs perched on top.
Cook's tip: You could also add any other edible Easter decorations you have to the tops of these pretty cakes.
