4 eggs, lightly beaten

Chuck this lot into a bowl and mix well
Spoon it into fairy cake cases in a cake tray- there will be some left over if you have a 12 cake tray like me
Plonk the tray into an oven at 180C for 15 minutes or until they look gook
Cool – you and the cakes!!

Topping

200 g Philadelphia Cheese, (other soft cheeses are available PMSL)
100 g icing sugar
2 tsp lemon juice

When the cakes are cool – mix (some call it beat!) this lot together until smooth
Spread it over the cakes and top off with a few chopped nuts if you like
