If you are like me and a little short on time (and money) this Christmas, this is possibly the easiest Christmas Cake recipe I have every come across. I have made some smallish cakes as gifts for family, friends, etc. You can also add spices to the recipe to make it a bit more christmas-ish (cinnamon, cloves, nutmeg, etc.) and could probably add alcohol if you go in for that sort of thing.
QUICK EASY MINI CHRISTMAS CAKESINGREDIENTS.-
1 kg of mixed fruit
600ml Coffee or Chocolate Big M (If you live somewhere that doesn't have Big M, it's basically flavoured milk. You can substitute, I imagine, other flavoured milks, but don't go with the diet varieties as it's the fat content which binds the recipe together)
2 cups SR flour
METHOD.-
Soak fruit in Big M over night.
Add 2 cups of flour (and a bit extra) & stir.
Put in muffin tins, or large tin or whatever. Decorate with blanched almonds if you like that sort of thing.
Cook at 180oC until done (about 15-20 mins for cupcakes - longer for a bigger cake)
Enjoy
The End

So glad you posted. The cakes look delicious. Thanks for sharing the recipe. Hope all is well (besides the "little short on time and money' which seems to be normal for most people). Merry Christmas.
Coming back to offer another wish for a Merry Christmas. Hope it is wonderful.
