JAMAICAN BLACK CAKE (CHRISTMAS RUM CAKE)
Even though there are many variations of this spiced fruit cake, no Caribbean home during the Christmas season is the same without it. Dark and rich in flavour, black cake is a made from an array of dried fruit such as raisins, cherries, and prunes, that are soaked for a long period of time before baking.

Steps:
- Make sure that your fruit mixture has been soaking for at least 3-4 days before adding to the cake mixture. If your fruits are whole, add the mix to the blender or food processor with the wine and rum and blend until they turn into a paste (adding the extra alcohol will help with this process). Mix in your Angostura bitters if desired. Set aside.
- Prepare two, 8-inch cake pans by greasing them with butter, as well as lining with parchment paper. Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C).
- For the batter: In a medium bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, mixed spice, cinnamon and salt. Set aside.
- In a separate container, crack the eggs. Whisk in the lime juice. Set aside.
- Using a stand mixer or electric hand mixer, cream together your softened butter and brown sugar in a large bowl for about 5-10 minutes until light and fluffy.
- Slowly, add the egg to the butter mixture, beating with each addition. Scrape down the sides of the bowl as needed. Mix in the lime zest, vanilla, mixed essence, rose water to the wet ingredients, and continue to mix.
- Add in the macerated fruit mixture a little bit at a time, until combined.
- Gradually add the flour mixture to the wet ingredients and fold in using a spatula or wooden spoon. Stir in the browning a tablespoon at a time to achieve the desired colour (usually dark-brown).
- Evenly divide the batter into the prepared cake pans. To ensure that the cake remains moist when baking, add a roasting pan with water to the bottom rack of the oven. Place cakes on the racks right above, and bake for 70-80 minutes.
- Remove cakes from the oven once done (a toothpick or a knife inserted in the centre should come out clean), and let rest in pan for 5 minutes. Brush the tops of the cakes with a couple tablespoons of the mixture of wine and rum. Once cool enough to handle, remove cakes from pan and brush with remaining wine/rum mixture. Wait at least several hours before serving.

- In a saucepan, bring the rum to a boil. Turn off the heat and add raisins and prunes into it. Cover and wait until the fruit has absorbed most of the liquid. If it doesn't happen, turn on the heat and simmer, until most of the liquid is absorbed. Allow to cool and puree dried fruit in a blender. Set aside.
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Half-fill a baking pan with water and place it on the oven's bottom shelf to create steam. Spray a 9-inch cake pan with cooking spray, line with parchment paper, and spray again. Dust it with flour, tapping out excess.
- In a stand mixer with a paddle attachment, cream the butter and brown sugar until light and fluffy. Add the eggs, one at a time, until they are incorporated. Add the vanilla extract, molasses and the pureed dried fruit and mix just until they are combined. On a low speed, add the sifted flour mixture, in batches. Finish by incorporating the final batch of the flour mixture with a rubber spatula.

- Ignite and set the clean oven 300F then set aside an additional cake pan of water to be placed at the bottom of the oven to ensure the cakes do not dry out.
- Cream butter and sugar in a very large mixing bowl with a wooden spoon until light and fluffy.
- Beat eggs one at a time with an Egg Beater (5 minutes) or two at a time for 1 minute with an electronic cake mixer until light-yellow in colour.
- Add to egg mixture: browning, vanilla, salt, mixed spice, and a splash of rum then stir with a large wooden spoon — or mix in the electronic cake mixer.
- Add baking powder, cinnamon and grated nutmeg then stir with wooden spoon or mix in the electronic cake mixer.
- Pour egg mixture into the sugary-buttery mixture, fold well with wooden spoon until all are properly mixed.
- Add 4 cups of soaked fruits to the mixture. Fold soaked -chopped or blended- fruits into this mixture. The balance of fruits can be left to soak until the next time you bake!
- Gradually fold in the flour to mixture, half-cup at a time. After the third half-cup, ensure that you are not adding too much flour by sticking the wooden spoon at a 90 degree angle into the center of the mixture then allow it to fall freely or lift the wooden spoon full to test its viscosity.
- Grease baking pans lightly (not too light), line with greased paper then grease and flour lined pans. Pour mixture into tins then place the tins in the oven to bake for about 2 hours at 300F.
- Check cakes from time to time, as baking times may vary. Stick a clean knife in the middle of each cake. Cakes are ready when the knife comes out clean, or almost clean.
