How to Make The World's Best Fruitcake
- Preheat oven to 300°F (150°C). Grease and flour a 10-inch tube pan.
- In a large bowl, cream together the butter and sugars until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, and spices.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
- Stir in the candied fruit, raisins, and nuts.
- Pour batter into the prepared pan and bake for 80 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let the fruitcake cool in the pan for 10 minutes before inverting it onto a wire rack to cool completely.
- Once completely cool, wrap tightly in plastic wrap and store in a cool, dark place for at least 2 weeks to allow the flavors to develop. This step is crucial for the best flavor!
- Enjoy! Serve slices of this incredible fruitcake with a cup of coffee or tea.
