    Christmas Cake Recipe – Xmas Cake Recipe – Easy Fruit Cake Recipe. Written instructions below. Don’t forget to LIKE, SUBSCRIBE & HIT THE NOTIFICATION BELL 🙂

    **VERY IMPORTANT**DO THIS BIT THE DAY BEFORE YOU COOK THE CAKE**

    Ingredients for preparing the dried fruit:
    450g / 16oz currants
    175g / 6oz sultanas
    175g / 6oz raisins
    50g / 2oz chopped glacé cherries
    50g / 2oz mixed chopped candied peel
    zest of 1 orange & 1 lemon
    100ml brandy (You can also use whiskey, bourbon, port, sloe gin etc. Go wild!)

    Put everything in a bowl and mix well. Cover with a cloth and leave to soak overnight.

    **DONE THAT? NOW ONTO MAKING THE CAKE :)**

    Ingredients for the cake:
    225g / 8oz plain flour
    ½ teaspoon salt
    ¼ teaspoon nutmeg – freshly grated
    ½ teaspoon ground mixed spice
    225g / 8oz dark brown soft sugar
    4 large eggs – beaten
    1 dessertspoon black treacle (use blackstrap or dark molasses if black treacle not available)
    225g / 8oz soft butter
    50g / 2oz chopped nuts

    *TIP* You can buy Mixed Spice ready made, but here’s the recipe I use to make it yourself if you can’t find it: 3 teaspoons ground cinnamon. 1 teaspoon ground nutmeg. 1 teaspoon ground allspice. 1 teaspoon ground coriander. 1 teaspoon ground ginger. ¼ teaspoon ground cloves.

    Step #1 – Grease a 8″/20cm cake tin & line with greaseproof paper.

    Step #2 – Preheat regular oven to 140°C / 275°F gas mark 1 (adjust for fan oven)

    Step #3 – Sift the flour, salt and spices into a large mixing bowl.

    Step #4 – In a separate bowl, whisk together the sugar & butter until soft & fluffy. You can use a mixer or electric hand whisk.

    Step #5 – With your mixer or electric hand whisk still running, add 1 tablespoon of the beaten eggs & 1 teaspoon of the flour mix. Allow to mix well. Repeat until all the egg mixture is gone.

    Step #6 – Gently fold the rest of your flour mix into your butter & egg mixture.

    Step #7 – Gently fold in the pre-soaked fruit mixture, black treacle & chopped nuts. TOP TIP: Place a dessert spoon in a cup of hot water before using with treacle.

    Step #8 – Transfer the cake mixture into the prepared tin. Spread it out evenly with the back of a wet spoon.

    *PLEASE NOTE* If you don’t intend to decorate the cake with marzipan and icing, you can add blanched almonds to the top of the cake at this stage.

    Step #9 – Cut a 1″ hole in the centre of the two greaseproof paper discs & place on top of the cake. Bake on the lowest shelf of the oven for 4 hours until the centre of the cake springs back when pressed. Cook for another 30 minutes if it doesn’t & check again.

    Step #10 – Allow the cake to cool in the tin for 30 minutes before removing it to a wire rack to finish cooling. When cold, you can feed the cake by inserting small holes & spooning in brandy.

    Step #11 – Wrap the cake in cling film & foil. Store in an airtight container for at least two weeks if possible. You can continue to ‘feed’ the cake until you are ready to ice or eat it.
