White fruit cake
Ingredients/Components
- sugar - 1 c
- eggs - 5 item
- flour
- butter - 1/2 lb

How to make white fruit cake:
Cream butter and sugar. Add lightly beaten eggs, then the flour and baking powder that have been sifted together. Reserve 1/4 cup of the flour mixture. Add extracts. Dredge the candied fruits in the reserved 1/4 cup of flour. Fold in fruit and pecans into the batter and pour into a greased and floured tube or Bundt pan. (I use Pam spray which I spray on liberally.) Place in a cold oven and bake at 250° for approximately 3 1/2 hours or until an inserted toothpick comes out clean. (When my cake has cooled, I remove it from the pan, turn it right side up and make numerous holes in the top with a toothpick. I then pour either bourbon, rum or peach brandy into the holes. Finally, I wrap the cake in tinfoil and place in covered cake plate.)Recipe categories: Desserts, American, North american.
