Prep 25 mins

Cook 10-30 Minutes

Serves 12

Ingredients:

  • 110g Salted Butter
  • 110g Caster Sugar
  • 2 Eggs, lightly beaten
  • 1 tsp Vanilla Extract
  • 100g Self Raising Flour
  • 1-2 tbsp Milk
  • 300g Icing Sugar
  • 2-3 tbsp Water
  • 2-3 Drops of food colouring

How to:

  1. Preheat the oven to 180c/Gas 4 and line 12 bun tray with bun cases.
  2. Cream the butter and sugar together in a bowl until it turns paler. Beat in the eggs, a little at a time and stir in the vanilla extract.
  3. Fold in the flour using a large spoon. Add a little milk until the mixture is a soft consistency. Spoon the mixture into the paper cases evenly. About half full.
