Ingredients/Components

  • sugar - 1 c
  • eggs - 5 item
  • flour
  • butter - 1/2 lb
  • baking powder - 1/2 tsp
  • broken pecans - 1 pt
  • candied cherries, chopped - 3/4 lb
  • candied pineapple, chopped - 3/4 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.)
