| "Ken's Sisters Christmas Cake" 2 c flour 3 c rolled crackers (salted) 2 ts baking powder 1 c butter 1 1/2 c brown sugar 1 1/2 c white sugar 6 eggs 2 tb Vanilla 1 ts allspice 1 ts cloves 1 ts cinnamon 1 ts nutmeg 1 lemon (grated rind & juice) 1 c sour milk (1 1/2 ts soda with milk to sour) 2 lb raisins (1 large 1 small) 1 lb currants 1 lb dates 1/2 lb mixed peel 1/2 lb glazed pinapple 1/2 lb glazed cherries 1/2 lb nuts (almond, walnut, etc) Cut mixed fruits & nuts into small pieces. (Raisins & dates, I soak in boiling water for a few minutes to soften) Mix everything in a large bowl. Put into cake pans that have been lined with wax paper. Bake in oven 275-300F for aprox 3 hrs. (time will depend on size of cake pans used. This recipe will make the "set of 3 cake pans" (1 lg, 1 md, 1 sm). Again, with this one I switched to using just the smaller cake pans. Recipe shared with me by friends and good neighbours "Ken & Sue". |
| "Aunt Alma's Christmas Cake" 3 c brown sugar 4 c flour 2 ts baking soda 2 ts cloves 2 ts allspice 2 ts cinnamon 2 ts nutmeg 1 ts vanilla extract 1 c butter 10 eggs 3 c sour cream 1 c crisco oil 1 c molasses or 1/2 syrup 1 c fruit juices 2 lb currants 1 lb walnuts 1 lb mixed peel 2 lb glazed cherries 2 lb raisins 2 lb dates 1 lb slivered almonds Preheat oven to 275F. Place a tray of water in the bottom of oven. (this helps make the cakes moist) Line bottom of pans with brown or parchment paper. Cut fruits & nuts into smaller pieces. Mix all in large bowl. Put into cake pans or bread pans. (aprox 3/4 full) Bake aprox 3 hrs. This recipe makes the "set of 3" cake pans. (1 lg, 1 md, 1 sm) Since I've always found the large cake of any recipe comes out dryer than the smaller ones. I've always used just the small cake pans. Recipe shared with me by the owner of the "Bake & Bits" store in Penetangueshene, Ont. |
