Every holiday season I cook the Christmas fruitcake and as soon as it gets closer and closer to the date, it’s a time to share the recipe. This cake is pretty easy to cook and it gets eaten super-fast. All you need is just dried fruits and nuts and a Christmas magic for sure.

Ingredients for cake:

Pitted dates (half of the cup)
Walnuts and almonds (mix – the whole cup)
Raisins (the cup)
Dried cranberries (the cup)
All dried fruits you like (it might be cherries, pineapples, etc.)
1-1/2 cups brandy
1/2 cup flour (I prefer to use the coconut flour)

Instructions:
Dredge all fruit, nuts, and brandy in half a cup of flour and let stand on the counter, covered, overnight.

Looks yummy! I like fruit cake. It gets a bad rep in the US.

why? originally it's a European (I think mostly german style of baked goods), so yummy if cook it properly.

Lots of cheap store bought fruit cakes in the states. Not good. home made always 👍

Вкусно? ;)

когда сам готовишь, все вкусно!

Привет. А я потерял изготовителя вкусняшек. Думал, что уехала на дегустацию новых блюд.
