Directions:
- Pre-heat the oven to gas mark 5/375F/190°C.
- You will need a 12-cup muffin tin lined with cupcake baking cases.
- To make the cakes, sift the flour and salt in a bowl.
- Then add in the rest of the ingredients in bowl and beat until absolutely smooth - 1-2 minutes.
- Then fill prepared muffin tin with the mixture and tap the tin two or three times to settle the cake mix.
- Bake on the centre shelf of the oven for 15-20 minutes or until the cakes are well risen and golden.
- Remove the cakes from the tin and transfer onto a wire rack and leave to cool.
- To make the lemon curd, place the grated lemon rind and sugar in a bowl.
- In another bowl, whisk the lemon juice together with the eggs, then pour the mixture over the sugar.
- Add the butter cut into small pieces, and place the bowl over a pan of barely simmering water.
- Stir frequently till thickened - for about 20 minutes.
- Cool the curd before using it for the filling (these can be stored in a clean dry jar with a screw-top lid, refrigerated and used within a week).
- To assemble the cake, take a small sharp knife and cut the top off each at an angle in a circle about 1/2 inch (1 cm) from the edge of the cake so that you remove a cone-shaped round, leaving a cavity in the centre.
- Cut the round in half, top to bottom, and set aside.
- Now fill the cavity of each cake with the lemon curd then sit the two cone-shaped pieces of cake on top like butterfly wings.
- Dust with icing sugar to serve.
