Ingredients:

Directions:

  1. Tip the fruit into a bowl, add the zest and juice and microwave on medium for 2 minutes (or leave to soak for 1 hour). Line a 12 hole deep muffin tin with paper cases. Heat oven to 180 degrees Celsius Beat together the butter, sugar, eggs, flour, spices and milk until light and fluffy, about 3-5 minutes. Add the fruit and mix together well.
  2. Half fill the muffin cases with the mixture. Divide the marzipan into 12 equal pieces, roll into balls, then flatten with your thumb. Put one into each muffin case and spoon the rest of the mixture over. Bake for 25-30 minutes, until risen and golden.
  3. Beat together the icing sugar and orange juice to make icing thick enough to coat the back of a wooden spoon. Drizzle over the cooled muffins, then top each with jelly beans or chocolate mini eggs.
