MMMMM----   Recipe via Meal-Master (tm) v8.06

     Title: Butterfly Cakes
Categories: Cakes, Snacks
     Yield: 12 cupcakes

  100 g  (4 oz) butter; softened
  100 g  (4 oz) caster sugar
    2 lg Eggs
  100 g  (4 oz) self-raising flour
    1 ts (level) baking powder

MMMMM--------------------------ICING---------------------------------
  175 g  (6 oz) butter; softened
  350 g  (12 oz) sifted icing sugar;
         - plus extra for dusting

 ESSENTIAL KIT: 12-hole bun tin and a piping kit.

 Set the oven @ 200oC/400oF (Fan 175oC/350oF/gas 6.

 Place fairy cake cases into a 12-hole bun tin, so that
 the cakes keep a good even shape as they bake.

 Measure all the cake ingredients into a large bowl and
 beat well for 2 - 3 minutes until the mixture is well
 blended and smooth.

 Fill each paper case with the mixture.

 Bake for 15 - 20 minutes or until the cakes are well
 risen and golden brown. Lift the paper cases out of the
 bun tin and cool the cakes on a wire rack.

 To make the icing, beat the butter and icing sugar
 together until well blended.

 Cut a slice from the top of each cake and cut this slice
 in half. Pipe a swirl of butter cream into the centre of
 each cake and place the half slices of cake on top to
 resemble butterfly wings.

 Dust the cakes with icing sugar to finish.

 Makes 12
