CUP CAKES ARE KOOL heres a delish recipe for lemon FAIRY cake

in my opinon they go best with littl cups of camamolie tea, and its ideal

for tea partys with friends or a happy bunch of stuffed animmals


or to even spice up this recipe more you can make little desighns or what i like to do best is make funny faces!
4 ounces unsalted butter, soft
2 eggs
4 ounces self raising flour, sifted
4 ounces caster sugar
3 tablespoons milk
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
Optional extras
chocolate chips (optional)
Icing
9 ounces icing sugar
3 tablespoons water
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1 drop yellow food coloring
Directions
1Preheat the oven to 195°C.
2Mix all the cake ingredients in a food processor (with or without chocolate chips) and place 3 heaped tsp in each cake case. Bake in the centre of the oven for 15-20 minutes and leave on a wiring rack to cool for a good 30 minutes (if you can resist 'em!). Only ice when cold.
3For the icing, mix together the 3 ingredients with a fork. If the consistency is too runny, add more icing sugar. Check how lemony the icing is before adding just a tad of food colouring if you prefer them to have that lemon touch! The icing should be almost like a paste, in order for it to stiffen on each fairy cake.
