As we are enjoying the lovely beaches of Cornwall, the lovely Kate from Family Fever has kindly written up some Easter recipes for us to enjoy....
With Easter almost upon us and a lot of children now being on school holidays, baking is a great way to keep the kids occupied and create some delicious treats too.
Here are 2 of my favourite Easter baking recipes – quick, easy and really tasty.
Easter biscuits
Ingredients:
•
175g butter
•
75g caster sugar
•
275g plain flour
•
Icing pens/sprinkles to decorate
Method:
•
Cut the butter into small pieces, then add the flour and sugar
•
Rub the butter between your fingers to make tiny crumbs
•
Squeeze everything together to make a dough
•
Knead lightly, then place between 2 sheets of baking powder and roll out thinly
•
Peel off the top piece of paper and cut out shapes – maybe Easter eggs?
•
Place on a baking tray, and bake for 10 minutes at 180 degrees.
•
Once cooled – decorate in any way you like!
Easter nest cakes
Ingredients:
•
300g chocolate
•
Tablespoon golden syrup or honey
•
4 large shredded wheat
•
Mini eggs
Method:
•
Break the chocolate into pieces and melt
•
Add the honey or syrup and stir
•
Crumble the shredded wheat into the mixture and stir well
•
Spoon into cake cases and decorate with mini eggs. You can eat them straight away or pop them in the fridge to set!
Thanks Kate!
