Please note that cooking appliances may vary. These instructions are given only as a guide.
- Preheat oven to 180°C (160°C for fan assisted ovens)/350°F/Gas Mark 4.
- Empty into a large mixing bowl:
The Vanilla sponge mix
1 egg
60ml (4 tablespoons) cold water
50g (2oz) softened butter
- Mix on high speed with an electric whisk or mixer for one and a half minutes and then spoon the cake mix into the Baking container, levelling the top.
- Place on a baking tray and bake on the middle shelf of the oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the cake is golden brown.
- Allow the cake to cool in it’s container for approximately 45 minutes, then carefully remove from the container.
- Cut the four corners of the cake with a knife to produce an egg shape.
- Beat 50g (2oz) of butter with a wooden spoon until soft. Gradually beat in the Topping mix to form a light butter cream – use an electric whisk to get it really light or add a few drops of water if necessary to soften.
- Spread the topping over the cake. Decorate the cake by using the Chocolate beans to create a bow. Use the mini eggs all the way around the edges of the cake and then sprinkle hundreds and thousands all over.
