- 170g of salted butter
- 170g of white sugar
- 3 eggs, beaten
- 170g of all-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons of baking powder
- A few drops of yellow coloring (optional)
- 75mls of whipped cream
- 75mls of jam (strawberry/ cherry or raspberry)
- 4 mini chocolate chips
- 1 teaspoon of powdered sugar
INSTRUCTIONS:
- Pre-heat the oven to 180 C / 350 F.
- Line a baking sheet (13 x 9 inches) with parchment paper.
- Using a stand mixer, cream together the butter and the sugar until it becomes light and fluffy.
- Gradually add the beaten eggs, beating well between each addition. Add the yellow food coloring if using.
- Add the flour and baking powder and mix just until combined.
- Spoon the mixture into the prepared tin.
- Cook for 25-30 minutes.
- To test if the cake is cooked, place a clean knife through the center.The knife should come out clean when it is fully cooked.
- Let the cake cool in the tin, then remove and place on a wire rack.
- Using a serrated knife, cut a thin layer off the top of the cake to ensure the cake is perfectly flat and even. It also gets rid of the crispy golden brown top to reveal the bright yellow cake inside.
- Using Peep cutters, cut out 8 peeps from the cake.
- Place 4 of the Peeps on a serving plate.
- Carefully spoon the jam and cream on top.
- Place the four remaining peeps on top.
