MOTHER`S DAY CAKE

Here`s a really great gift for mum ...make her a cake ..a delicious fruit cake .
This is so simple .....
Place in a large bowl
1 kg  of mixed dried fruit ,( I used a mix of candied peel , sultanas and raisins )
Pour in 3 cups of fruit juice  ( I used an orange and mango juice )
Let this sit overnight till the juice is absorbed into the fruit .
Next day preheat your oven to 120 deg C... no mistake 120 deg C
Then add 3 cups of self raising  flour to the fruit and juice mix .....mix well with a wooden spoon.

Now spoon the batter in a 22 cm baking pan , that has been prepared with spray and lined with baking paper .

Bake for 2 and 1/2 hours on the bottom shelf of your oven .
Remove and allow to cool then place on a wire cooling rack .



Place in an airtight container will keep for 3 weeks but why keep it when it can shared .
HAPPY MOTHER`S DAY .
