Hi debbz!
This is an unusual choice of ingredients, but it makes a lovely moist rich fruit cake! This is the one I make.
8oz S.R flour
5oz butter
4oz castor sugar
2 large or 3 medium eggs
3oz cherries
1lb jar of good quality mincemeat
Cream the butter & sugar. Mix eggs in with a little of the flour. Add cherries. Mix remainder of flour gradually & add the mincemeat. 7/ 8 in cake tin. Gas mark 3/ 170c for 1 and a quarter hours to one and a half hours or firm to the touch. Simple! xxx
