“Absolutely, absolutely.”
If I had a nickle for everytime a caller on any radio call-in show, said “absolutely”, I could have retired a year ago.
LOL, ho-ho,,,,,,I think she’s had too many ho-ho’s or ring dings or whatevers - imagine what her stomach is like when she stands up...........
She’s been stuffing too many ring dings in her yap, she hasn’t had time to worry about her ho-ho!
“fairy cakes”?
???
I’m not sure I want to know.
LOL, fairy cakes,,,,,another word for cupcakes in the UK
she was kinda like a chocolate soft serve icecream machine.....brb got to puke.
jessicararebit said... The original fairy cakes named by us British are because of a certain way they are decorated. When the cake is ready to be iced we scoop out the top with a spoon. Not a deep scoop but making sure this disc of sponge is kept in one piece and put it to the side. Fill the scoopy-out part with fluffy butter icing. Then cut the spare circle of cake in half and squidge the pieces into the icing at an angle, opposite each other. Thus creating a little pair of fairy wings on your cake...then sprinkle with a little icing sugar oops, I mean fairy dust!
Canada, the UK, Germany, France, etch don't have to export it via hollywood. Their societies are living it out these debase morals even more than we are.
Ingredients
1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
7 Tablespoons sugar
2 large eggs
3/4 cup self-rising cake flour
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
Note: I have used 1/2 teaspoon almond extract instead of the suggested 1 tsp.vanilla extract and the flavour is amazing.
2-3 Tablespoons milk
This is your typical hard Icing:
Note: I do not like this icing recipe because it dries out too quickly and believe me, when I say dries it hardens and dries. Not my suggestion. I prefer a butter cream icing for these dainties.
1 cup powdered sugar
1 egg white
3-4 drops lemon juice
food coloring
Directions
Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
Line a 12 cup muffin tin with baking cups.
Put all the ingredients except for the milk into a food processor and blend until smooth.
Pulse while adding the milk down the funnel to make for a soft consistency.
It doesn’t seem like enough, but you can get enough into each baking cup, just scrape it all out and try to fill each one equally.
Bake for 15-20 minutes or until they are golden on top.
Cool on a wire rack, but remove from the tin as soon as possible.
Before you decorate, slice off any mounded tops so you have a flat surface to decorate.
Icing:
Mix the sugar, egg white and lemon juice in a small bowl until smooth and creamy, it should have the consistency of heavy cream Nigella always breaks the batch into smaller batches so she can have different colours.
In Nigella Lawson’s cookbook they show the “Fairy Cakes” topped with rosebuds and little sugared daisies and fresh berries.
Use your imagination.
NOTE: I personally do not cut any of the top off!!! I prefer the rounded look and I don’t like to waste.
