Ingredients
- 140 grams unsalted butter softened
- 140 grams caster sugar
- 3 eggs
- 225 grams self-raising flour
- 100 grams white chocolate chips
- 3 drops red food colouring
- 50 grams icing sugar
- 30 grams rainbow coloured hundreds and thousands
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 170 degrees Celsius. Prepare a 2 lb loaf tin by lining with a loaf tin liner.
- Put the butter and caster sugar in a large mixing bowl. Beat with a wooden spoon until light and fluffy.
- Crack the eggs in one at a time, beating after each one to fully combine.
- Add the flour. Fold in gently. Add the chocolate chips and food colouring and continue to fold until well mixed.
- Spoon the mixture into the loaf tin. Smooth the top gently then transfer to the oven for 45 minutes - 1 hour. To check when the cake is done, insert a skewer into the centre. If it comes out clean, it is cooked. If it is coated in batter, cook for 10 more minutes then try again.
- When the cake is cooked, remove from the oven and allow to cool.
- Mix the icing sugar with 1-2 tablespoons of water. Stir to create a thick paste. If it is too loose, add more icing sugar.
- Spread the icing over the top of the cake. Sprinkle over the hundreds and thousands. Allow the icing to set before slicing and serving.
