Fairy cake recipe

[GezFox]

Hi I made some last night and they turned out a bit dense . Not sure if I got the consistency runny enough. Can anyone share their next recipe ? Interested in adding fruit , choc or any other interesting flavour combos . Thanks

There was a recipe on here somewhere that added a spoon of custard powder... I'm going to try the recipe this week!!

I would think that was down to not getting enough air into it, so more creaming of the butter and sugar. I got a kitchenaid last Christmas and can't believe the difference in my sponges now, I obviously wasn't mixing enough before

As a change from a plain fairy cake, I put a bit of batter into the cake case, then a teaspoon of jam or Nutella, then cover with more mixture
