Someone requested a Rum Cake recipe. This one was given to me by my
grandmother and is traditionally used at christmas and for weddings. I
hope you enjoy it!

In a large bowl, cream butter and sugar together until pale yellow. Add 2
eggs at a time, mixing well after each addition. Add vanilla and burnt
sugar. In a medium bowl, sift together all dry ingredients. Add slowly to
the large bowl, mixing well. The batter will be very heavy. Add about 2
cups of the fruit mixture (more or less according to taste). Mix well. Pour
into well greased and floured cake tins. Bake at 350 degrees for about an 1
hour or until a knife inserted in the middle comes out clean.

Once the cake is cooled (do not remove it from the tin), pour approximately
1/4 cup of rum over it. Cover tightly with aluminum foil. Check the cake
every 2 to 3 days. If it becomes “dry” add some more rum. Continue in
this manner for 1 month. (You might not have to add any rum to it after 2
weeks, but keep checking it.)

Fruit Mixture: Chop fruit in blender or food processor. Put into a jar
which can be tightly sealed. Cover the contents with rum and seal the jar.
Keep in a cool, dark place. This should be done at least 1 month in
advance of the cake. If you don’t use all of the fruit mixture, don’t
worry…it will keep for years! It’s also a great topping for vanilla ice
cream!
