Preparation steps

2.
Sift the flour, cocoa and bicarbonate of soda into a mixing bowl. Stir in the sugar.

Whisk the buttermilk with the eggs and pour into the dry ingredients. Add the melted butter and fold in gently until just combined. The mixture will be lumpy.

For the icing: sift the icing sugar into a bowl and gradually beat in the water and vanilla until smooth and thick.
6.
Spoon over the muffins, allowing the icing to run down the sides and decorate with gold chocolate almonds and silver balls before the icing sets.
