@mysticahope: Rich Fruit Cake Recipe 🧾 Ingredients Fruits (soaked mixture): 2 cups raisins 1 cup sultanas 1 cup currants 1 cup chopped dried apricots (or mixed dried fruit) ½ cup chopped dates ½ cup chopped mixed peel (optional) ½ cup cherries (optional) ½ cup dark rum / brandy / orange juice Cake batter: 250g unsalted butter (softened) 1 cup brown sugar 4 large eggs 1½ cups all-purpose flour 1 tsp baking powder 1 tsp ground cinnamon ½ tsp nutmeg ½ tsp mixed spice (optional) 1 tsp vanilla extract Zest of 1 orange Pinch of salt Extras (optional but recommended): ½ cup chopped nuts (almonds or walnuts) 👩‍🍳 Instructions 1. Soak the fruits Mix all dried fruits with rum (or juice). Cover and soak for at least 24 hours (best: 3–7 days for richer flavor). 2. Prepare the batter Cream butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add eggs one at a time, mixing well. Add vanilla and orange zest. 3. Combine dry ingredients Sift flour, baking powder, spices, and salt together. 4. Mix everything Fold dry ingredients into the butter mixture. Add soaked fruits (including any leftover liquid). Stir in nuts if using. 5. Bake Preheat oven to 150°C (300°F). Line a deep cake pan with parchment paper. Pour batter in and level the top. Bake for 2.5 to 3.5 hours (low and slow). Check with a skewer—it should come out clean. 6. Cool & mature Let cake cool completely. Wrap in parchment + foil. Store for at least 3–7 days before eating for best flavor. You can brush with rum weekly for extra richness #Recipe #recipes #recipesoftiktok #fyp
