Servings: persons

4 ounces unsalted butter, soft
2 eggs
4 ounces self raising flour, sifted
4 ounces caster sugar
3 tablespoons milk
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
Optional extras
chocolate chips (optional)
Icing
9 ounces icing sugar
3 tablespoons water
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1 drop yellow food coloring

1
Preheat the oven to 195u00b0C.
2
Mix all the cake ingredients in a food processor (with or without chocolate chips) and place 3 heaped tsp in each cake case. Bake in the centre of the oven for 15-20 minutes and leave on a wiring rack to cool for a good 30 minutes (if you can resist 'em!). Only ice when cold.
3
For the icing, mix together the 3 ingredients with a fork. If the consistency is too runny, add more icing sugar. Check how lemony the icing is before adding just a tad of food colouring if you prefer them to have that lemon touch! The icing should be almost like a paste, in order for it to stiffen on each fairy cake.
