METHOD
1
Preheat the oven to 180 °C/160 °C fan/gas mark 4 and line a 12 hole muffin tin with paper muffin cases.
2
Sift the flour, cocoa and baking powder into a bowl. Very roughly chop the Cadbury Flakes into chunks and add to the flour with the sugar.
3
Mix together the eggs, milk and vegetable oil and pour on to the dry ingredients. Stir until mixed and a firm batter has formed. Divide the mixture equally between the muffin cases. Immediately bake for 20-25 minutes or until well risen and just cooked in the middle. Leave to cool.
4
Meanwhile make the frosting. Sift the icing sugar into a bowl and add the softened butter. Beat well until thoroughly mixed. Stir in the vanilla extract and enough milk to give a firm but pipeable frosting.
5
Place in a large piping bag, fitted with a star nozzle and pipe swirls of frosting over each of the muffins, to resemble soft ice cream.
6
Cut each of the Cadbury Flake 99 bars into two pieces and then each of those pieces in half, lengthwise. Decorate each muffin with a piece of Flake and if liked a sprinkling of chocolate vermicelli.
