Flower Cupcakes
Makes 12
150g unsalted butter + 75g for the frosting
150g caster sugar
3 organic eggs, beaten
150g self-raising flour
1 tsp vanilla extract + 1 tsp for the frosting
1 tbsp milk + 1 tbsp for the frosting
150g golden icing sugar
12 cupcake cases
optional: food colouring
optional: edible flowers to decorate
For the cupcakes
Heat the oven to gas 4/180C.
Cream the butter and sugar together and milkshakey and fluffy. Then gradually add and mix in the beaten egg. Sift the flour into the mixture and fold. Stir in 1tsp vanilla extract and 1tbsp milk.
Place the cupcake cases into a baking tray or muffin tin and divide the mixture equally. Bake for 15 minutes or until golden and light to the touch. Once cooked, leave to cool on a wire rack.
For the frosting
Beat the butter until softened and smooth, then sift in the icing sugar and stir. Add the vanilla extract and milk to create a light, creamy texture.
If adding food colouring, add as much as necessary to give an even colour. You can divide the mixture and create different colours if you wish.
Once cooled, pipe the frosting onto the cupcakes. Decorate with edible flowers if desired. Leave to set for 30 minutes or more.
Homemade Lemon Curd
Makes 4 jars
Juice and zest of 8 lemons (unwaxed)
400g golden caster sugar
200g unsalted butter
6 whole eggs
2 egg yolks
Put the zest and juice of the lemons, along with the sugar into a heatproof bowl. Cut the butter into cubes and add to the bowl, then place over a pan of simmering water (a bain-marie). Stir using a whisk until the butter has melted.
Lightly whisk the eggs and egg yolk in a seperate bowl, then stir into the heated mixture. Let the curd cook, regularly stirring for 10 minutes until thick.
Remove from the heat and stir now and again while it cools down. Pour the mixture into clean jars and seal. It should keep for 10 days in the fridge.
Try it spread on toast, added to Greek yoghurt or use it to make the most fantastic cheesecake - lightly mix with mascarpone and whipped cream and spoon onto a crushed ginger biscuit base.
