Flower Pot Cookie Cakes Recipe
This delightful treat combines the best of both worlds—biscuits and cakes—all wrapped up in a charming flower pot design. While it might seem a tad extravagant, there's no need to eat it all at once! This recipe has been adapted from Annabel Karmel's "Princess Party Cookbook," which is an excellent guide for planning themed parties. The "flower pots" used here are actually silicone cake cases I purchased from Lakeland. If you can't find these, plain or brown cake cases work just as well.
### Making the Flower-Pots
To create the earthy look inside the flower pots, you'll need a chocolate cake mix.
#### Ingredients for Flower Pots
- 110g (4oz) butter
- 110g (4oz) caster sugar
- 2 eggs
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 85g (3oz) self-raising flour
- 4 tsp cocoa powder
#### Instructions
1. Cream together the butter and sugar, then add the eggs and vanilla.
2. Sift the dry ingredients and gently fold them into the mixture.
3. Pour the batter into the silicone cake cases.
4. Bake for 15-17 minutes at 180°C/350°F/Gas 4.
### Making the Flower Cookies
Since we didn’t have a flower-shaped cutter, we went with a star shape instead, which turned out just fine. In the original recipe, the flowers were cut from a flat chocolate cake, but I was a bit worried they’d crumble. So, I decided to use biscuits on top instead.
#### Ingredients for Cookies
- 125g (4 ½ oz) plain flour
- 50g (2oz) icing sugar
- 1 medium egg
- 100g (4oz) butter
#### Instructions
1. Sift the flour and icing sugar into a bowl.
2. Separate the egg and add the yolk to the flour mixture.
3. Add the butter and stir until smooth.
4. Roll the mixture into a ball, wrap it in plastic, and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
5. Preheat the oven to 190°C/375°F/Gas Mark 5.
6. Roll out the dough on a floured surface and cut into star shapes.
7. Carefully insert a lollipop stick into each star.
8. Bake for 8-10 minutes until golden.
### Decorating the Flower Pot Cookie Cakes
I wanted the kids to enjoy decorating their own cakes, making it more fun and interactive.
#### Ingredients for Decoration
- White icing
- Sweets (smarties, dolly mixtures, jelly diamonds)
- Coconut (color half green using food coloring)
- Sprinkles
#### Instructions
**For Adults:**
1. Once the cookies are cooled, cover them with icing.
2. Place a round sweet like a smartie in the center and sprinkle some coconut around it.
3. Once the icing dries, attach the decorated cookie to the flower pot.
4. Add some green coconut to resemble grass in the pot.
**For Kids:**
1. Ask if they can eat it yet (because kids).
2. Spread icing everywhere (inevitable).
3. Sneakily eat as much as possible when no one’s looking.
4. Repeat step 1.
5. Decorate with sweets and sprinkles to your heart’s content.
6. Admire the masterpiece.
7. Nibble a corner.
8. Repeat step 1 again.
For the younger ones, I kept it simple—a cupcake with sweets and sprinkles. They loved decorating and even played with the coconut!
This recipe is perfect for parties or just a fun afternoon activity. Whether you’re aiming for perfection or letting the kids go wild, these Flower Pot Cookie Cakes are sure to bring smiles!
