- 1 ¼ cups all-purpose flour
- Baking powder
- 4 Tbsps milk

Preparation steps
1.
Heat the oven to 180°C (160°C in a fan oven), 375°F, gas 5 and line a springform tin with grease-proof paper.
2.
Cream together the butter and sugar and beat in the eggs, one at a time. Mix the flour with a pinch of baking powder and gradually stir into the butter and egg mixture, alternating with the milk, to form a thick, smooth batter.
3.
Tip the batter into the tin and bake in the oven for around 30 minutes (cocktail stick test). Remove from the oven and cool completely, then take out of the tin and crumble into a bowl.
4.
Cream the butter and icing sugar together until pale then gradually mix in the cream cheese. Mix with the cake crumbs and shape into small balls. Chill in the refrigerator for around 1 hour.
5.
Melt the chocolate in a bowl over hot water, then remove from the heat and allow to cool.
6.
Spear each ball on a lolly stick and dip into the slightly cooled chocolate. Allow the excess to drip off then coat in sugar balls or cocoa powder, for example. Stand in an empty tin or similar and leave to set.
