Tunnocks Tea Cake Cupcakes

A couple of weeks ago I tried baking with my favourite tea time snacks – Tunnock’s Caramel Wafers. The results were pretty special, definitely enough to warrant another baking session with another Tunnock’s products, Tunnock’s Tea Cakes.

My Tunnocks’ habit began whilst I was at University and I still have a bit of a soft spot for pretty much any Tunnocks treat. Have you ever tried at Tunnocks’ Tea Cake? They are really yummy with a delicious marshmallow centre.

I made my Tunnocks Tea Cake Cupcakes the same way as my previous bake, whipping up a normal chocolate cupcake batter and adding a quarter of a tea cake to each one.

When the cupcakes had baked in the oven and cooled, I added a chocolate frosting and sprinkles to the top.

The marshmallow melted whilst baking which makes for a really moist and slightly chewy cupcake.

These are so good! I’m wondering what other Tunnock’s products I can bake with 🙂 I also have a small pile of colourful wrappers which are just asking to be crafted with. Watch this space!
