If you\u2019d like more recipes for children, you don\u2019t need to persuade me anymore ;). I went out and bought bear-shaped moulds especially for this recipe. I used a simple cupcake batter. The teddy bears rise evenly in the moulds; they\u2019re delicate, soft, and easy to fill. They can be frozen and then defrosted whenever your children ask for them. For the filling, I used Nutella because I always have some on hand, but homemade custard cream works just as well. I promise – your children will be absolutely delighted!<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Makes 20 teddy bears.<\/p>\n

Ingredients for the vanilla and cocoa bears with Nutella:<\/u><\/p>\n

\n
• 130 g\u00a0butter<\/li>\n
• \u00bd cup caster sugar<\/li>\n
• 2 eggs<\/li>\n
• \u00be cup plain flour<\/li>\n
• 1\u00bd tsp baking powder<\/li>\n
• 2 tsp vanilla extract<\/li>\n
• 2-3 Tbsp milk<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

  Additionally:<\/span><\/p>\n

  \n
  • a bit of cocoa powder (about 1 tsp)<\/li>\n
  • Nutella, for\u00a0the filling<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    All ingredients should be at room temperature. Sift the flour and baking powder and set aside.<\/p>\n

    In a mixing bowl, beat the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Add the vanilla extract and mix. Add the sifted dry ingredients (apart from the cocoa powder) along with the milk, and gently mix with a spatula until combined. Spoon two tablespoons of the batter into a separate bowl and add 1\u20131\u00bd teaspoons of cocoa powder. Mix well.<\/p>\n

    Grease the bear-shaped moulds with butter and dust with flour, shaking off any excess. Transfer the cocoa mixture to a piping bag and pipe the paws and ears into the appropriate parts of the moulds using a small round tip. Place the vanilla batter in a piping bag and pipe into the moulds, filling them halfway. You can also use a spoon, but a piping bag makes the process much easier.<\/p>\n

    Bake at 190\u00b0C for about 15 minutes (or slightly less), until golden and a skewer inserted into the centre comes out clean. Remove from the oven and transfer to a wire rack to cool.<\/p>\n

    Once cooled, turn the bears over and fill them with Nutella.<\/p>\n

    Enjoy!<\/p>\n
