Directions

GETTING READY
1. Pre-heat oven to Regulo 5 or 375°F.

MAKING
2. On a floured surface, roll out pastry in to 1/8 inch thickness.
3. Using a fluted cutter, cut pastry out in rounds, about a 1/4 inch larger than the top of the patty tins. Reroll any scraps of pastry (if any) and cut out more rounds.
4. Take patty tins and line with pastry. Keep 1 teaspoon jam in each tart.
5. In a stand mixer, add margarine. Beat until fluffy.
6. Add caster sugar gradually and beat until light and fluffy. Add the egg and continue beating.
7. Put in the flour and beat.
8. Add milk finally and beat until a nice, creamy, silky batter with a dropping consistency is formed.
9. Drop a spoonful of the mixture in each case, making sure the jam is covered.
10. Bake half way down the oven for 15-20 minutes until the cakes are pale golden, and the creamed mixture is springy to touch.
11. Remove and cool on a wire tray.

SERVING
12. Dust lightly with icing sugar and serve warm.
