It was busy in the Homeroom kitchen last week as we made Christmas Cupcakes and Fridgecake Chunks for the Christmas Fayre. They all sold out very quickly so well done everyone 
To make your own Christmas Cupcakes you will need:
110g butter
110g caster sugar
110 g self-raising flour
2 eggs
a splash of milk (about a tablespoon)
a handful of chocolate chips
about 6 glace cherries cut in half
For the buttercream icing:
soft butter
icing sugar
green food colouring
coloured icing tubes to decorate
Before cooking, wash your hands and put on an apron.
1. Preheat the oven to 180 C / Gas 4.
2. Weigh and measure the ingredients
3. Mix all the cupcake ingredients together until soft and smooth
4. Spoon the mixture into cake cases in a bun tray
5. Ask an adult to put the tray in the pre-heated oven at for about 10 minutes
6. While the cakes are cooling down mix soft butter with sifted icing sugar. Then stir in some green food colouring a drop at a time until you get the colour you like. Mix together until smooth then chill in the fridge until the cakes are cold and ready to decorate.
