  • 2 eggs
  • 1 cup plain flour
  • 1 1/4 cups self-raising flour
  • 1 tsp. mixed spice
  • 1/4 tsp. carb. soda (baking soda)

Directions:

Place mixed fruit, sugar, butter, and pineapple (with juice) into saucepan. Bring to boil and simmer for 5 minutes. Allow to cool.

Lightly beat eggs and stir into cooled mixture. Sift together the flours, mixed spice, and soda and fold into mixture.

Bake in a round or square 7-8 inch tin in a moderate oven for 2 3/4 hours. Test after about 2 hours as time may vary depending on your oven.

Remove from oven when cooked, and let cool before removing from tin, unless you have lined it with baking paper. No need for topping as it's great without.

I am looking for a fruitcake recipe that uses bourbon or wine. A grandparent had a recipe many years ago but has passed on and no one has her recipe. I would appreciate someone sharing their recipe if possible.

I use the recipe from Bordon's Nonesuch mincemeat. Then when the cake is done I soak it in rum every few days. It is delicious. It calls for one jar mincemeat Brandy and Rum flavor. I didn't write it down buy found it by typing in nonesuch mincemeat fruitcake.

Since it calls for Bordon's sweetened condensed milk the recipe might be on their web site too. You can soak this cake in Bourbon too, I just happened to have the rum. This is a great cake.
