Christmas Cake Recipe - Easy Fruit Cake that's beautifully moist!
An easy Christmas cake that turns out perfect every time. No creaming, beating or soaking of fruit required! Plus tips on storage and feeding your Christmas cake.
Feeding your fruit cake in the weeks leading up to Christmas helps to build and intensify the flavour of the cake, and will ensure it's beautifully moist.
Oven Temp:
Bake in the oven at 150C/300F (fan) for 45 minutes, then 140C/275F (fan) for a further 60-75 minutes - until an inserted skewer comes out clean.
Alcohol-free Christmas Cake:
For a non-alcoholic version, you can replace the alcohol with cold tea, fresh orange or apple juice.
You can then feed the cake with either:
1. Cold tea
2. Fresh orange or apple juice
3. Ginger cordial mixed with water (2 tsp mixed with 2 tbsp water)
4. Rum flavouring mixed with water (⅛ tsp mixed with 2 tbsp water).
If you do this, don’t make the cake any earlier than November, as juice (as opposed to alcohol) could start tasting funny after more than a couple of months.

Apfel Kuchen (Apple Kuchen -- Cake) -- Very Easy!
I used a McCall's cookbook I was given in 1980 for this recipe, show the cover and quickly read off the recipe. I prefer quick breads and batter cakes/tartes. I don't own a mixer, have few gadgets, and it's hard for me to stand up and roll things out and cut them, so I look for recipes I can do mostly sitting down, mixing things calmly with a fork!
I did add a few walnuts to the topping but that was just an afterthought. This came out well and my spouse actually took a second helping, which is generally not done in France, and asked me how I did it. That's a rave!
To make vanilla sugar, just put ordinary granulated sugar into a jar, add a whole vanilla bean, and tighten the lid. By a few days later, it will be infused with a vanilla flavor. The French like this on their plain yogurts sometimes, and I find vanilla extract costly and don't always have it around. Never throw out the used vanilla bean. They will infuse your vanilla sugar for a year or more, then can be used further! Just look in a good old cookbook for what to do with old vanilla beans. No part of the whole vanilla bean should ever be discarded! They can be used up entirely, no waste.
This used about nine smallish apples of mixed varieties. They are just yard apples, and I had to cut away the few bad spots. Organic!
This is a good enough dessert for company if you arrange the apple slices more prettily than I did and keep the slices more uniform in size, but I didn't bother. I should have also used a pastry brush to glaze the finished cake, but don't own one, so I just spooned the reines claudes, a kind of green type apricot or plum fruit in preserve form here, over the hot cake and it glazed itself. My cake was too big to get out onto a wire rack even, but it cooled okay and didn't come out mushy.

Though meant to be served warm, there was so much cake here (we are a family of two only) I cut the rest into rectangles and wrapped and froze some! They are nice to carry to work, and unwrapped and thawed at room temperature can be enjoyed as is or warmed a little. This cake is not too crumbly or delicate but it was somehow very light. If I can do it, so can you! The glaze is important.
The BEST Pineapple Upside Down Cake
This delicious Pineapple Upside Down Cake is beyond easy to make from scratch, and it comes out of the pan fully decorated! You will be amazed when you remove the cake pan and see the caramelized layer of pineapple and maraschino cherries over the soft and fluffy cake.
RECIPE:
This cake is packed with sweet pineapple flavor, intensified by the caramelization of butter and brown sugar on the pineapple rings. The bright yellow and red layer also always brings a smile to my face as it’s so colorful and cheerful, making it a delightful treat!

The Easiest and Best Taste Vanilla Swiss Cake Roll Recipe! Melt in your mouth! Very soft and creamy
The Easiest and Best Taste Vanilla Swiss Cake Roll Recipe! Melt in your mouth! Very soft and creamy
* Ingredients
60g (4.5 tbsp) Cooking oil
80g (1/3 cup) Milk
100g (3/4 cup) Cake flour
6 Eggs
1.25ml (1/4 tsp) Vanilla extract
2g Lemon juice
65g (5 tbsp) Sugar
100g Mascarpone cheese
18g (1.5 tbsp) Sugar
1.25ml (1/4 tsp) Vanilla extract
120g (1/2 cup) Heavy whipping cream
Cake pan size: 25x40cm
170°C (340°F) Bake for 35 minutes
Refrigerate for about 1 hour
* Important tips:
1. If you don't like vanilla extract, you can omit it.
2. The main reason for the skin to fall off is not baked through, the surface is too wet so the skin will fall off when rolled later. To avoid falling off, you can increase the baking time, or bake at high temperature for 10 more minutes. If your oven has a fan function, please use the fan function to bake, so the surface is easy to dry.
3. There are two reasons for the cracking: one is that the egg whites are too dry, and the second reason is that the baking temperature is too high. Therefore, when whipping the egg whites, try to whip them a little soft, wet foam, and the whisk is a big hook. Because this baking pan is relatively large, so the chance of cracking is very small, you can use a relatively high temperature to bake.
4. Do not wait for the roll to cool down before rolling, when the temperature of the cake roll is close to hand temperature you can do, it is easier to crack the roll after it cools down
5. If you don't have mascarpone cheese, you can use cream cheese instead!
6. Refrigerate for about 1 hour then to cut and enjoy!
