100  grams caster sugar

100  grams dark brown sugar

200  grams butter (Felchard or Anchor)

200 grams cake flour (all-purpose flour  an be used as a substitute)

5      eggs

50   ml fresh milk (optional)

5       grams baking powder

200  grams mixed candied fruits (mix with 5 grams of cinnamon powder)

150  ml brandy Pinch of salt

Preparation

Soak the candied fruits in brandy overnight to soften the fruits.

Thoroughly mix the butter, brown sugar and caster sugar.

Add vanilla essence and eggs, one by one into the butter mixture, then thoroughly mix.

Sift the flour, cinnamon powder and baking powder. Set aside.

Once the eggs have incorporated into the butter mixture, add the sifted flour. You may add milk to ensure that the mixture is not too dry.

Pour the mixture into a baking tray and bake at 170 C (fan and rotate-oven for over 35 minutes).

Use a bamboo stick or toothpick to check if the cake is fully baked by inserting it in the middle. It should come out clean.

If necessary, add a few more minutes to ensure that the cake is baked well.
