These are one of my “signature bakes” – I make them for all occasions and as nearly everyone likes a slice of good old Victoria sponge, these bite size versions always go down well.
The recipe is just a simple Victoria sponge mix:
6oz butter
6oz caster sugar
1 tsp vanilla essence
3 eggs
6oz self raising flour
For the filling I use buttercream and jam- but you can use anything!
Icing sugar for dusting
Simply beat the butter and sugar for 5 full minutes with an electric whisk. Add the vanilla and eggs (one by one, beating between additions) Then use a big spoon and fold in the flour.
I use silicone cupcake cases, in a muffin tin. Bake then for 15-20 mins at approx 180C.
Then when they are cool, slice in half and add your filling. Dust with icing sugar. Et voila !
Lots of love, Hazel-Ann x
