Instructions
Preheat the oven to gas 3, 170°C, fan 150°C. Line two mini cupcake tins with 24 mini paper cupcake cases. Set aside 3 blackberries and cut the remaining 8 into thirds; put one third in the base of each cupcake case.
In a mixing bowl, combine the sugar and butter. Beat, with an electric whisk, for 2-3 minutes, until light and fluffy.
Whisk in the eggs, one at a time, followed by the vanilla. Fold in the flour and milk, and then divide the mixture between the paper cases. Bake for 9-10 minutes, until risen, golden and springy to the touch. Remove from the oven and leave to cool completely on a wire rack.
For the frosting, heat the pink marshmallows in a microwave-proof bowl for 30-50 seconds, until just melted. Set aside to cool for 10 minutes. Meanwhile, roughly mash the reserved blackberries.
In a separate mixing bowl, beat the butter and icing sugar for 3 minutes, until light and fluffy. Add the melted marshmallows, vanilla, food colouring and crushed blackberries and continue beating to form a thick and shiny icing. Chill for 10 minutes.
To make the marshmallow skulls, cut out a mouth at the thin end of each white marshmallow using scissors. Using a clean paintbrush, dab the melted chocolate on to each marshmallow skull to make eyes and a nose. Using a sharp knife, cut out a shallow disc from each cooled cake about the size of a 1p piece. Spread half a tsp of icing over each cake, filling the dent and covering the surrounding surface. Nestle a marshmallow skull in the dent of each iced cake and leave to set. Serve.

Kitchen capers
They’ve got that loving feeling when it comes to dinner for two. After all, the couple that cooks and does the dished together, stays together… there may not be fridge or an induction cooktop involved.
