175g unsalted butter
175g self-raising flour
175g caster sugar
Baking powder
3 large eggs
Vanilla extract
Fresh cranberries
White chocolate
I am a bit lazy when it comes to baking and don't tend to weigh out all of the ingredients. I weigh out the important stuff like flour, sugar and butter, but when it comes to the other bits and bobs such as vanilla extract and all the other flavourings, I tend to add in whatever I feel like.
Step One
Mix softened butter and sugar together
Step Two
Add in all 3 eggs and flour and beat well.
Step Three
Mix in a dash of baking powder and roughly half a teaspoon of vanilla extract.
Step Four
Add chopped fresh cranberries and chunks of white chocolate. I used roughly 80g of a bar of chocolate and cut it into large chunks.
Step Five
Divide mixture evenly between 15 muffin cases. Bake at 180°C in a preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the cakes are well risen and firm on top. (Check on them! As my cakes may have a slightly burnt look!)
Step Six
When the cakes were cool I added bits of white chocolate. Or you could add icing if you prefer.
Very easy to make and very yummy too! What is your favourite type of cake?
I could go one of these right now!
