Method
- Preheat your oven to 160°C/320°F/Gas Mark 3. Line a 12-hole muffin tin with paper cases.
- Beat the sugar and butter with the vanilla extract until light and fluffy (about 5 minutes). Add 1 egg, 1/3 of the flour and cornflour and 1/3 of the milk. Beat until just combined then repeat twice more until all the eggs, flour and milk have been added.
- Divide the batter between the 12 cases and bake for 20-25 minutes. Drizzle about a teaspoon of golden syrup over the hot cakes and cool on a wire rack.
- To make the buttercream, place the icing sugar, butter and vanilla extract in a large mixing bowl. Mix with an electric mixer for about 5 minutes until soft, smooth and creamy, adding a little milk only if the mixture is too stiff.
- Divide the icing into 3 equal portions and colour 1/3 red, 1/3 navy and leave 1/3 white.
- To decorate, place the star nozzle in one of the piping bags and put to one side.
- Spoon each of the 3 icings into separate piping bags, pushing all the air out as you squeeze the icing to the end of the bags. Snip the end of each bag and place all 3 bags into the fourth piping bag with the nozzle.Twist all 4 bags at the top of the icing.
- Pipe a star in the centre of one cake then pipe around the star to form a swirl. To finish push down slightly then pull up quickly. Repeat with the remaining cakes.
