Children In Need

School

On Friday 13th November at school we could dress up as a super hero, have mad hair or wear spotty clothes.

I went as Batman and I wore a Children In Need badge with spots on it.

Bake Sale

At home I made some Lemon and Vanilla cupcakes for the school bake sale with Smarties on top and sugar paper Pudsey’s.

I made them by mixing butter, sugar and flour then mixed the vanilla extract in with the eggs.

My favourite part of making them was icing them and putting the smarties and Pudsey’s in the cupcakes.

           Method

For the cup cakes…

  1. Firstly I put the oven on 190° C and washed my hands.
  2. Secondly I put the blue cup cake cases in a bun tray ready for later.
  3. Then I emptied the sponge cake mix sachet into a bowl, added 1 medium egg and 4 tablespoons (60 ml) of water.
  4. After that I mixed it together and whisked it for about one minute until the mixture was lovely and creamy.

  5. Next I carefully shared the sponge cake mixture between the 6 cup cake cases.
  6. Then I let it bake in the centre of the oven for 15 to 20 minutes until they rose up and went golden brown.
  7. Afterwards I took them out of the oven and left them to cool down completely.

For the icing…

  1. I made my icing by putting the icing mix in a bowl and adding 2-3 teaspoons (15ml) of water…
  2. Then I mixed it carefully until it got thick but pourable
  3. Using a spoon I divided the icing equally between the cooled cakes then added the waferettes to decorate and complete my MINION cup cakes.
