All-in-one Pan Fruit Cake
Makes one 20 cm/8 in cake
350g or12 oz or 2 cups dried mixed fruit (fruit cake mix)
100 g or 4 oz or half cup butter or margarine
100 g or 4 oz or half cup soft brown sugar
150 mll or quarter pint or 2 thirds cup water
2 large eggs, beaten
225g or 8 oz or 2 cups self-raising (self-rising) flour
5 ml or 1 tea spoon ground mixed (apple-pie) spice
Put the fruit, butter or margarine, sugar and water in a pan, bring to the boil, then simmer gently for 15 minutes.
Leave to cool. Stir in spoonfuls of the eggs alternately with the flour and mixed spice and mix well.
Spoon into a greased 20 cm or 8 in cake tin (pan) and bake in a pre*heated oven at 140'C/275'F/gas mark 1 for 1 to 1 and a half hours until a skewer inserted in the centre comes out clean.
If you can resist eating it at this point leave to cool but keep the kids and husband away from the kitchen.
Do not eat all at once just it as quick as possible and don’t tell the family you made it or they may want you to share.
