Ingredients:
Instructions:
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease or line a muffin tin with paper liners.
- Cream the butter, sugar, and brown sugar in a large mixing bowl until light and fluffy.
- Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the self-raising flour, cinnamon, ground nutmeg, and ginger.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture, alternating with the milk. Start and finish with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined.
- Spoon the batter into the prepared muffin tin, filling each cup about two-thirds full.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Allow the cakes to cool in the tin for about 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
- While the cakes are cooling, whip the heavy whipping cream in a chilled bowl until soft peaks form.
- Optionally, you can fold in the finely chopped glacé ginger into the whipped cream for added flavor.
5. Serve:
- Once the cakes have cooled, serve them with a dollop of the glacé ginger cream on top.
- Optionally, garnish with additional chopped glacé ginger.
Tips:
- Make sure your butter is at room temperature before you start mixing to ensure a smooth batter.
- For a finer texture, sift the self-raising flour before measuring it out.
- To evenly incorporate the spices, you can whisk them together with the flour before combining with the wet ingredients.
- When whipping the cream, make sure it’s cold and use a chilled bowl to achieve stiff peaks more easily.
- Fold the whipped cream gently to maintain its fluffy texture.
- Be cautious with garlic cloves; mince them finely so their strong flavor compliments rather than overpowers the cakes.
