  • 2 eggs
  • Zest of 2 lemons
  • plus 2-3 tbsp lemon juice
  • 100g self-raising flour

STEPS

For the cupcakes
  1. Preheat the oven to 180°C.
  2. Beat half the sugar and all the butter until pale, then add whole eggs, one by one, beating in well each time.
  3. Stir in the lemon zest and a squeeze of lemon juice, then fold in the flour.
  4. Line a 12-hole cupcake tin with cupcake cases and put 1 large tablespoon of mix in each. Smooth then make a little dip in the centre.
  5. Bake for 10 mins, then allow to cool.
To decorate
  1. To make the meringue, put the egg whites and vanilla extract into a clean bowl. Whisk until stiff peaks form, then whisk in the sugar one tablespoon at a time.
  2. Keep whisking until the mixture looks glossy and has thickened a little.
  3. Spoon the mixture into a piping bag and snip off the end to leave a hole with a 1.5cm diameter.
  4. Pipe Cake Angels Zingy Lemon Frosting onto the top then add Carnival Sprinkles around the edge to decorate.
  5. Pipe a swirl of meringue on top of the frosting.
  6. Place under a hot grill for 30 seconds or until the meringue is lightly browned (or you could use a blow torch if you have one and can use it safely!)
  7. Refrigerate the cupcakes until ready to serve.
