PEEKABOO CHRISTMAS GIFT GUIDE 2012 / 15

Auntie Edna’s Christmas Fruit Cake One of my fondest Christmas memories is my Great-Auntie Edna's Christmas Day routine. Every year Auntie Eddie is responsible for bringing her yellow rice salad and her famous Christmas Fruit Cake - however she is most famous for her penchant for some bubbles before lunch and during lunch which usually results in a little catnap during the afternoon whilst the rest of us play Euchre. I hope you enjoy Auntie Edna's Christmas Fruit Cake as much as my family - Sal.

AUNTIE EDNA'S CHRISTMAS FRUIT CAKE RECIPE 1 packet of mixed fruit ¼lb of butter 1¼ cups of sugar 1 teaspoon of bicarb soda 1 teaspoon of cinnamon ½ teaspoon of all spice 1 dessertspoon of cocoa 1 tablespoon of coconut 2 cups of water Large handful of chopped almonds 1 tablespoon of brandy/liqueur (optional) Large handful of sultanas (optional) 1 packet of glacé cherries (optional) Place all above ingredients in a saucepan and slowly bring to boil. Once boiling, simmer for 3 minutes. Cool.

When cool, add: 2 beaten eggs 1½ cups of self-raising flour 1 cup of plain flour Pinch of salt Mix and pour into a lined pan. Cook in a conventional oven at 160º for 1.5 to 2 hours. After 1.25 hours test with a skewer.

When skewer comes out clean, remove from oven and allow to cool slightly. Turn onto cooling rack.

Once completely cool cake can be iced if required. Tie a wide ribbon around side of cake to present and most of all enjoy!
