Zubereitung von Yummy Yummy Fruitcake
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour your baking pans (size will affect baking time).
- In a large bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) softened shortening, 1 ½ cups packed brown sugar, and 1 cup granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
- Beat in 2 teaspoons rum flavoring, ½ cup water, and 4 large eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 4 cups all-purpose flour, 2 teaspoons baking powder, 1 teaspoon baking soda, 1 teaspoon salt, 2 teaspoons ground cloves, and 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
- Stir in 3 cups glazed fruit mix (candied cherries, pineapple, etc.) and 1 cup shelled walnuts.
- Pour batter into prepared pans.
- Bake for approximately 120 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean. Baking time may vary depending on pan size; start checking for doneness around the 90-minute mark.
- Let cakes cool in pans for 5 minutes before inverting onto a wire rack to cool completely.
- Once cool, wrap tightly in waxed paper, then a heavy towel, and finally saran wrap to retain moisture. Store in a cool, dry place. The flavor will deepen over time!
