Rolo Cupcakes

Who would you give your last Rolo to? If it was me .. I'd say nobody! Those packets are far too small :). I haven't mastered caramel frosting just yet so instead I used yellow buttercream.

Ingredients
To make 12 cupcakes

9 oz Plain flour
3 oz Cocoa
3 Tsp Baking powder
17oz Caster sugar
300ml Milk
150 ml Olive oil
2 eggs
300ml Boiling water
Rolos 3 pks

Icing
226g Butter softened
600g Icing sugar
2 Tsp Vanilla essence
4Tbsp Milk
Yellow food colouring
Hershey's chocolate sauce

Method
30 min Before starting place 12 rolos in the freezer.
1. Heat the oven to 180 degrees.
2. In a large bowl mix flour, cocoa, baking powder and sugar.
3. Pour in milk, oil, egg and beat until smooth.
4. Pour in boiling water and beat.
5. Pour into cases, adding a frozen rolo into each case and bake for 15 minutes.
6. Allow to cool.
7. For the icing whisk the butter for 3 minutes. Sift in the icing sugar and beat on low speed for 1 min. Add vanilla and a dash of yellow food colouring and milk beat for 3 minutes. 
8. Pipe the frosting onto the cupcakes and place a rolo ontop of each one.
9. Drizzle the Hershey' s chocolate sauce over the icing.

Put your pj's on, throw your feet up and sink your teeth in :)
