Butterfly cakes image

Provided by Liberty Mendez

Categories     Afternoon tea, Dessert, Treat

Time 30m

Yield Makes 10

Number Of Ingredients 12

110g butter , softened
110g caster sugar
2 eggs
1 tsp vanilla extract
110g self-raising flour
½ tsp baking powder
1 tbsp milk , plus 2 tbsp if needed, to loosen the buttercream
strawberry jam (optional)
sprinkles (optional)
300g icing sugar
150g butter , softened
2 tsp vanilla paste

Steps:

  • Heat the oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Line a cupcake tin with 10 cases. To make the sponge, tip the butter, sugar, eggs, vanilla, flour, baking powder and milk into a large mixing bowl and beat with either a hand whisk or electric mixer until smooth, pale and combined. Divide the batter between the cases and bake for 15 mins until golden brown and a skewer inserted in the middle of a cake comes out clean. Leave on a wire rack to cool.
  • While the cakes are cooling, make the buttercream by beating together the icing sugar, butter and vanilla until pale and fluffy. Mix in the extra milk if the icing feels too stiff.
  • Once the cakes are cool, use a sharp knife to slice off the tops, then cut the tops in half. Pipe or spread the buttercream on top of the cakes, then gently push two semi-circular halves into the buttercream on each cake, doing this at an angle to look like butterfly wings. You can serve the cupcakes at this stage, or decorate them with a little blob of jam in the centre and a scattering of sprinkles, if you like.

BUTTERFLY CUPCAKES (TRADITIONAL BRITISH BUTTERFLY CAKES)



Butterfly Cupcakes (Traditional British Butterfly Cakes) image

Pretty little cupcakes filled with jam and cream and a butterfly on top. Traditional British treat at children's parties.

Provided by Christina's Cucina (adapted from Good Housekeeping)

Categories     Cakes & Pies

Time 45m

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 jar raspberry jam, good quality; I like Mackays or Bonne Maman (you won't use the entire jar)
1 cup (8 oz) heavy whipping cream, whipped
powdered sugar for dusting
2 1/2 sticks (300g) good quality butter, unsalted and at room temperature (if you only have salted butter, omit the salt)
1 1/4 cups (300g) superfine or Baker's sugar (caster sugar in the UK)
6 eggs, beaten
2 cups (300g) self-rising flour (or all purpose flour with 2 tsp baking powder), SIFTED
a good pinch of salt

Steps:

  • In a stand mixer or using a handheld mixer, cream the butter and sugar until very light and fluffy. It will begin to pale in color, too.
  • Add about one third of the beaten eggs, and mix well at medium speed.
  • Then add about a third of the sifted flour. Repeat this step. Add the rest of the eggs and mix well, then turn the mixer to low and add the final flour. Just mix until well combined.
  • Fill the cupcake liners half full with the batter and bake for 25 to 30 minutes or until a skewer comes out clean when placed in the center of a cupcake.
  • Remove cupcakes from the tin, place on cooling rack and allow to cool completely. When ready to decorate, cut out the center of each cupcake, angling the knife at a 45º angle.
  • Then cut the loose piece in half to resemble butterfly wings. Place a small amount of jam in the center. Follow with a dollop of cream (or buttercream, if desired). You can also pipe the cream like I did. Next, place the "wings" on top.
  • Repeat with all of the cupcakes, then dust each one generously with powdered sugar. Serve immediately, or refrigerate until ready to serve.

Yield Makes Cakes

Number Of Ingredients 0

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 190 C or 375 F
  • Cream butter or margarine with sugar until light, fluffy and pale in colour. By hand is best but a hand whisk is fine too!
  • Beat the eggs and add them bit by bit with spoons of sifted flour. Bit by bit ensures the mixture does not curdle. Gently fold in an any flour left over when the egg is used up.
  • Add the vanilla or any other flavourings desired and half fill the paper cases with the mixture and bake for about 15 minutes until risen and firm but not too dark.
  • Leave the cakes to cool then cut a slice from the top of each cake and cut this in half.
  • Place some of the butter icing on top of the cake then arrange the 'wings' how you want them.
  • Enjoy!
