Time 1h30m

Yield Makes 48

Number Of Ingredients 12

6 cups finely diced mixed dried fruit, such as dried apples, pears, apricots, and golden raisins
1 1/2 cups chopped walnuts (5 1/2 ounces)
1 3/4 cups brandy
1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, room temperature
3/4 cup packed light-brown sugar
3 large eggs, lightly beaten
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, (spooned and leveled)
1 1/2 teaspoons coarse salt
3/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground cardamom
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
1/2 cup apricot jam, warmed, for topping

Steps:

  • In a large nonreactive bowl, combine dried fruit, walnuts, and 1 1/4 cups brandy. Cover with plastic wrap and let stand 8 hours (or up to 1 day), stirring occasionally.
  • In a large bowl, using an electric mixer, cream butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in eggs in 2 additions, scraping down bowl in between. In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, salt, and spices. Reduce speed to low and beat in flour mixture in 2 additions, scraping down bowl in between. Fold fruit mixture into batter.
  • Preheat oven to 300 degrees, with racks in upper and lower thirds. Line two minimuffin pans with paper liners. Fill each liner with 1 rounded tablespoon batter. Firmly tap pans on counter to settle batter. Bake until a toothpick inserted in center of a cake comes out clean and edges are light golden brown, 25 to 30 minutes, rotating pans halfway through.
  • Brush cakes with 1/2 cup brandy; transfer cakes to a wire rack to cool completely. (To store, cover and refrigerate, up to 1 month.) Brush with apricot jam before serving or packing.
