Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 c. whole Brazil nuts
  • 1 1/2 c. walnuts
  • 1 pkt pitted dates (8-oz)
  • 1/2 c. raisins
  • 2/3 c. candied orange peel
  • 1/2 c. candied green cherries
  • 1/2 c. candied red cherries
  • 3/4 c. flour
  • 1/2 tsp baking pwdr
  • 3/4 c. sugar
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 3 x Large eggs
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 ounce brandy optional

Directions

  1. Combine nuts, dates, raisins, orange peel and cherries. Sift flour, baking pwdr, sugar and salt over fruits and nuts, making sure all are well-coated. Beat the Large eggs well with the vanilla extract and add in to flour-fruit mix.
  2. Grease two 9x5-inch loaf pans, line with brown paper, then grease the paper. Pour in the batter and bake at 300 degrees for 1 and 1/2 to 2 hrs. Cold, then wrap in Saran wrap. After several days, brush loaves with 1 oz brandy if you like. Best to make these about 3 weeks before you want to serve them.
