Every now and then at this time of year I close my eyes and a memory pops into my head of eating my Granny June's Easter sponge when I was young.

Dam that was a fine cake.

In honour of Granny June, here is the recipe, with added Barti sparkle and some (a huge amount) of chocolate mini eggs!

Ingredients

Cake Mix
• 250g salted butter softened
• 250g self raising flour
• 250g golden caster sugar
5 eggs
• 2 oranges zested
• 1 lemon zested
• 1 tsp baking powder
• 1 shot of Barti

For the drizzle
• 2 oranges juiced
• 1 lemon juiced
• 2 tbsp golden caster sugar
• 2 shots of Barti

For the icing
• 150g salted butter softened
• 500g icing sugar
• 1 tsp of vanilla sugar
• 180g cream cheese
• 2 shots of Barti
• ½ lemon zest
• ½ orange zest
• 1 bag of crushed mini eggs

For the decoration
• Lots and lots of mini eggs
• 2 mini bottles of Barti

Method
1. Pre heat oven to 180C, grease a bundt tin and then dust with a little flour.
2. Beat all the cake ingredients together until you have a smooth batter and pour into the tin
3. Place in middle of oven for around 35 mins or until cooked and golden, once cooked remove to cool
4. For the drizzle place all ingredients apart from the Barti into a saucepan and bring to simmer for around 5 mins. Remove from heat and add the Barti
5. Prick the cake with a fork and pour the syrup over the cake
6. Leave the cake to cool for around 30 mins and then turn out onto a wire wrack to cool. If it doesn’t come out straight away just leave it and gravity usual does the trick.
7. While the cake is cooling you might as well make the icing. Add all the ingredients together and beat together until well combined, spread over the cake and add your decoration of mini eggs and mini Bartis
8. Place in fridge and serve cold
9. MMMMMMMMMMmmmm
