Dark Fruit Cake Recipe Demonstration - Joyofbaking.com
Recipe here: Stephanie Jaworski of Joyofbaking.com demonstrates how to make Dark Fruit Cake. This Dark Fruit Cake is loaded with candied and dried fruits as well as chopped nuts. It is flavored with ground spices and a little molasses which colors the batter a beautiful dark golden brown. Once baked it is repeatedly brushed with alcohol, over several weeks, which imparts a lovely alcohol flavor and it also makes the cake wonderfully moist. The added bonus is that the alcohol acts as a preservative so the cake can be stored for ages and ages.

Tammy’s Christmas Fruitcake (New Recipe is not in our Cookbooks)
For the Cake:
2 CUPS BUTTER
2 CUPS PACKED BROWN SUGAR
6 LARGE EGGS
2 TSP. APPLE PIE SPICE (PENZEY’S)
2 2/3 CUP SELF-RISING FLOUR (WHITE LILY)
1/2 CUP GRAPE JUICE
3 TBSP. VANILLA EXTRACT
3 1/2 CUPS CANDIED FRUIT
10 OZ. CHOPPED DATES
4 CUPS CHOPPED PECANS
Read the entire recipe before beginning. Do not
preheat the oven!
In a mixer mix the butter and sugar until fluffy. Add
eggs one at a time, beating in between.
Add Apple pie spice and vanilla extract. Add grape
juice and mix well. Add flour and beat for 2 minutes
on medium speed.
In a separate bowl add 1/3 CUP FLOUR then add your
fruit and mix until fruit is coated well with flour. Add
pecans and dates and mix well. Pour batter into bowl
with fruit and nuts. Mix well.
Spray pans with baking spray and fill 3/4 full of
batter. Put cake in a cold oven and then put on Bake
at 350 degrees and bake 30 minutes. Turn oven to
250 degrees and bake for 2-4 hours. Cook time will
vary depending on size and depth of cake. Cake must
be done before topping with fruit. After you top cake
cook another 30 minutes for pecans to toast.
For pecan and fruit topping:
JELLY OR MARMALADE (8OZ.) 1-2 CUPS OF LARGE
MIXED COLORED CANDIED FRUITS (YOUR CHOICE) I
LIKE RED AND GREEN CHERRIES.
4 CUPS OF WHOLE PECANS
Heat jelly (your choice apple or orange marmalade)
in a non-stick small pot or skillet.
Pour over fruit and mix until fruit and nuts are coated
well.
My choice of fruits:
8 oz. FRUIT AND PEEL OLD ENGLISH MIX OR EXTRA
FANCY (THESE ARE CHOPPED SMALL) (1 CUP)
8 OZ. TROPICAL MIX (1 CUP)
8 OZ. MIXED PINEAPPLE AND CHERRIES (HALF THESE)
10 OZ. CHOPPED DATES
TIPS:
WHEN YOU BUY FRUIT AND NUTS GET PLENTY FOR
TOP OF CAKES TOO!
DO NOT PLACE TOPPING ON CAKE BEFORE IT IS SET
IN MIDDLE OR IT WILL SINK DOWN INTO THE CAKE.
DO NOT USE OLD ENGLISH FRUIT UNLESS YOU TASTE
AND MAKE SURE YOU LIKE THE CITRON AND FRUITS,
REPLACE WITH OTHER MIXED FRUITS IF YOU DO NOT
LIKE IT.
