Fruit Cake

Ingredients

• Flour (Maida) - 1/2 cup
• Baking Powder - 1/4 tsp
• Sugar - 1/4 cup
• Butter (molten) - 1/4 cup
• Eggs - 2
• Vanilla Essence - 1/4 tsp
• Dry fruits - 1/4 cup (I use dried strawberry, plum & raisins)

Preparation

• Sift the flour and baking powder and keep aside.
• Cut up the dry fruits into small pieces. Dust it with a little bit of flour and set aside. 
• In a large bowl, whisk the molten butter and sugar together into a thick mixture. Beat in the eggs, but one at a time. Now add the vanilla essence.
• Now add the flour/baking powder mixture into the egg/butter mixture but do so a little at a time. When you are done you should see a thick mixture. 
• Grease a baking pan (I used 24 cm square pan) with butter, then lightly dust it with flour. 
• Pour the mixture into the greased pan and bake it in the oven at 190 degrees Celsius for 20 minutes or however long it takes for the cake to be done. Insert a toothpick all the way into the cake and if it comes out clean then you know the cake is done. 

Allow cake to cool before cutting it up.
Perfect for high tea!
