Lemon Fairy Cakes with Lemon Icing

[pandaemonaeum]

Cream together 4oz of unsalted butter and 4oz of caster sugar until the mixture is light and fluffy. You can do this in a blender or mixer or processor but I'm hard so did this by hand!

Beat in two eggs, the zest of two lemons, and the juice of half a lemon.

Fold in 4oz of self-raising flour.

Spoon into cake casings and bake at 180 degrees Celcius for 10-15minutes until golden brown.

While they bake and cool, beat 5oz of icing sugar into 2oz of butter and the juice of half a lemon. Apply to cooled cakes.

Makes 12-15 cakes :)
