Spaghetti and meatballs cupcakes

Serves:

Ingredients

• 1 quantity vanilla cupcakes
• 1 quantity buttercream icing
• 1/2 cup raspberry or strawberry jam
• 12 Lindt ball chocolates

Method

Step 1. Prepare the cupcakes and leave to cool.

Step 2. When cooled, prepare the icing and fill an icing bag with a very skinny straight tip.

Step 3. Pipe the icing over each cupcake to resemble spaghetti.

Step 4. Place jam in a bowl and stir it well until it has a runny consistency. Dip a Lindt ball into the jam and place on each cupcake. Drizzle a little extra jam over the Lindt ball chocolates to look like spaghetti sauce.

Serving Suggestions

Note

• Don’t be tempted to heat that jam. It will melt the icing and create a kitchen disaster.
• You can use Ferrero Rocher chocolates instead of Lindt balls.
