175g butter
175g caster sugar
175g self raising flour
4 eggs
1 tspn vanilla
3 tbspn cocoa powder (optional)
Icing :
500g icing sugar

20 pieces Terry's chocolate orange (melted)
Method
1. Preheat your oven to 160 fan.Line a baking tray with your cupcake cases of your choice.
2. Mix your stork and sugar together.I use a stand mixer and whisk for a few minutes,until combined.
3. Add the rest of your ingredients (egg,self raising flour,vanilla,cocoa owder). Mix for 5 minutes and until the mixture is light and fluffy.
4. Spoon your cake batter into the cases and place in the oven for 15-35 minutes.Keep an eye on the cakes as you don't want them burning.(That would ruin your day)
5.Whilst your cakes are cooling you can make the icing.Mix the stork with the icing sugar and add in the melted chocolate gradually.Continue to whisk so the buttercream gets thick and fluffy.
6.Using a piping bag and a star nozzle pipe the icing onto the cupcake and finish of with a segment of the orange and some edible glitter to give it the wow factor.
7.Make yourself a cup of tea or hot chocolate if your feeling like a chocoholic and enjoy your yummy creation.You could share with your friends or keep them all to yourself.
