Christmas Cake Recipe
Just a quick post before I totter off to bed for an early night. I've been seeing lots of blog posts about people making their own Christmas cakes. If you haven't made yours yet I suggest that you try my recipe this year ...
Ingredients:
- 2 cups flour
- 1 stick butter
- 1 cup of water
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 1 cup of sugar
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 cup of brown sugar
- Lemon juice
- 4 large eggs
- Nuts
- 2 bottles wine
- 2 cups of dried fruit
Sample the wine to check quality. Take a large
bowl, check the wine again. To be sure it is of the highest quality, pour one
level cup and drink. Repeat. Turn on the electric mixer. Beat one cup of butter
in a large fluffy bowl. Add one teaspoon of sugar. Beat again. At this point
it's best to make sure the wine is still OK. Try another cup... just in case.
Turn off the mixerer thingy. Break 2 eggs and add to the bowl and chuck in the
cup of dried fruit.
Pick the fruit up off floor. Mix on the turner. If
the fried druit gets stuck in the beaterers just pry it loose with a
drewscriver. Sample the wine to check for tonsisticity. Next, sift two cups of
salt. Or something. Check the wine. Now shift the lemon juice and strain your
nuts. Add one table. Add a spoon of sugar, or somefink. Whatever you can find.
Greash the oven. Turn the cake tin 360 degrees and try not to fall over. Don't
forget to beat off the turner. Finally, throw the bowl through the window.
Finish the wine and wipe counter with the cat. Go to Waitrose and buy
cake.
Bingle Jells!
I love it ......
