Comment préparer Best Christmas Brandy Cake

Combine 1 lb mixed dried fruits (sultanas, currants, raisins) with 1/2 cup brandy. Dredge with 1 1/2 cups of all-purpose flour. Cover and let stand for at least 2 hours, or preferably overnight.
Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9x13 inch baking pan.
In a large bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar, and the zest of 1 large lemon until light and fluffy.
Add 4 large eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Beat until the mixture is pale and forms soft peaks.
Gradually add the remaining 1 1/2 cups of all-purpose flour, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
Gently fold in the brandy-soaked fruit mixture.
Pour batter into the prepared cake tin. Bake for 1 hour and 15 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean. Let cool completely in the pan before serving.
