About your Discover Baking! Cake Kit

Our Discover Baking! Cake kits can be made into 3 tasty recipes. Easy, ready-measured ingredients. No Mess. No Fuss. Just 3 delicious bakes to choose from.

Forgotten to take your butter out of the fridge?

Top Tip: Soften it in the microwave for 5 secs at a time until smooth and spreadable.  Do not melt.

WHY NOT TRY adding a dollop of jam inside each of your muffins.

6 ingredients5 steps

    Method

    1. Step 1

      Before you start:
      Pre-Heat the oven to 180c/160c Fan/gas 4.
      Pop 6 of the muffin cases into the cupcake tray.

    2. Step 2

      In a large bowl, mix together the softened butter, caster sugar, eggs, milk and flour with a spoon.
      Once combined, spoon the mixture into the paper cases until ¾ full and bake for 25 - 30 mins.

    3. Step 3

      To check your cupcakes are baked throughout, insert the tip of a knife into the sponge. If ready, the knife will be clean when removed.  Cool in the cases on a wire rack.

    4. Step 4

      Make the buttercream by mixing the icing sugar, butter and milk, until smooth.

    5. Step 5

      Once cooled, take a cutlery knife and cut a small hole, 1-2cm deep in the middle of each muffin.  Fill each hole with sprinkles, then replace the cake with buttercream, using the back of a spoon to create a swirl.
