Method

  1. Heat oven to 190C/fan 170C/gas 5 and put 16 gold cases into a fairy-cake tin. Tip all the ingredients for the cake into a mixing bowl and beat for 2 mins with an electric hand-whisk until smooth. Divide between the cases so they are two-thirds filled, then bake for 12-15 mins until risen. Cool on a wire rack.
  2. For the frosting, microwave the chocolate on High for 1 min. Cream the butter and sugar together, then beat in the melted chocolate. Spread on the cakes and decorate with Maltesers and chocolate eggs.

    Fudge is right! They were perfect! My twelve year old daughter made these and iced them the next day. Very easy, worth the wait! Didn't have milk choc in so used semi sweet and added muscovado sugar o it while melting! Would definitely reckoned these to anyone!
