Ingredients
Method
- Preheat oven to 200°C. Grease oven trays; line with baking paper.
- Beat butter, sugar and egg in a small bowl with an electric mixer until light and creamy. Beat in sifted dry ingredients and buttermilk, on low speed, until mixture is smooth.
- Drop scant tablespoons of mixture about 5cm apart onto trays. Bake cakes about 10 minutes. Cool on trays.
- Make the raspberry butter cream by beating butter in a small bowl with electric mixer until light and creamy. Beat in sifted icing sugar and milk. Tint pink with colouring; stir in raspberries.
- To make the chocolate ganache, bring cream to the boil in a small saucepan. Remove from heat; stir in chocolate until smooth.
- Spoon butter cream into a piping bag fitted with a 2cm fluted tube. Pipe butter cream on the flat side of half the cooled cakes.
- Spread ganache over rounded side of remaining cooled cakes. Place on top of butter cream. Sprinkle with rainbow sprinkles.
- If you are wanting to bake-ahead, unfilled cakes can be frozen for up to 2 months. Kisses, once filled, should be served within several hours.
