This is an easy recipe if the ingredients are available readily. Rich with fruits & nuts with some nice boost to celebrate the Christmas season. You can keep this cake for about 3-4 weeks and can prepare ahead of time so you can store it while brushing with brandy to hold the moist in the cake & to make it even richer in tastier.

TIPS:
🔺🔺In this video I am soaking fruits for 7 days. It is better to soak them for about 2 weeks. More you soak more flavor you get. If you are making this cake in a hurry you can soak them for 24hours least.
🔺🔺You can make this cake ahead of time and store it in a cool dry place, in an air tight container. Soak the cake with brandy or rum every 4-5 days.
🔺9 Inch round pan..
Baking Sheet
🔺Bake in 300F degrees for one hour fifty minutes to 2 hours. Until a skewer inserted comes out clean.
