Australia Day Lamington Cup Cakes
Ingredients:
1 cake mix or your favourite made from scratch patty cake recipe (I've put mine below)
1/2 cup choc chips
1/2 cup coconut
1/2 cup raspberry jam
1 tbsp boiling water
1 cup icing sugar
3 tbsp cocoa
1 tbsp butter
3 tbsp milk
Method:
Make the cake mix according to packet directions. Add the choc chips and the coconut. Scoop into cupcake papers. Bake 15 - 20 minutes at temperature on packet or until a skewer in the centre of a cup cake comes out clean. Place onto cake rack to cool completely.
Stir water into jam. It needs to be thinned, but not runny. Put jam in a sauce bottle or an icing bottle. Place nozzle in the centre of cupcake and squeeze a little jam into the cupcake, like you would a jam donut.
Ice with chocolate icing. Sprinkle with coconut.
Chocolate Icing:
Beat the icing sugar, cocoa, butter and 2 tablespoons of milk together until smooth. If the mixture is too thick, add the other tablespoon of milk and beat well.
