NEE'S WHITE FRUITCAKE



Nee's White Fruitcake image

This is not for traditional fruitcake lovers. This is a lighter fruitcake that my grandmother has made for over 40 years. Starting in November, friends and family members start requesting this cake. It can be frozen after baking or refrigerated to make it keep longer. ADVICE: MAKE SURE YOU USE A GOOD QUALITY TUBE PAN THAT IS WELL GREASED AND LIGHTLY FLOURED OR YOU WILL NEVER GET IT OUT OF THE PAN. You can use alcohol to soak if you want to, but this is sooooooo good that it doesn't need it. Keep it will covered with foil and in an airtight container.

Categories     Dessert

Time 3h45m

Yield 20-25 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 15

6 eggs (separated)
1 1/2 cups butter (not margarine)
2 1/2 cups sugar
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 pint sour cream
2 tablespoons lemon extract
1 tablespoon butter flavor extract
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
3 cups flour (divided in 1/2)
1/2 lb candied red cherries
1/2 lb candied green cherries
1/2 lb candied pineapple, chunks
6 candied pineapple slices (red and green if you can find them)
3 cups pecans
3 cups coconut

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 275 degrees.
  • Beat egg whites until soft peaks form and set aside.
  • Cream sugar and butter together until well blended.
  • Add egg yolks and extracts and beat for 2 minutes.
  • Add the baking soda into the sour cream; mix well and let sit for 3 minutes.
  • Once 3 minutes are up, add the sour cream to the cake mixture.
  • Add 1 ½ cups flour and beat well. Once this mixture is well beaten, fold in your egg whites.
  • (I used my Kitchen Aid with the wire beater to mix everything to this point. Once I get to this stage, I use the hook or the other flat beater attachment---this makes the whole mixing bowl FULL). Anyway, once the egg whites are folded in, fold in your coconut and pecans.
  • In a medium bowl with a lid (so you can shake), put the remaining 1 ½ cup flour, the cherries, and pineapple chunks; cover and shake well to cover the fruit.
  • Once the fruit is covered, add this (flour and fruit) to the cake mixture and blend until it is all mixed well. The flour keeps the fruit from all dropping to the bottom.
  • In a GOOD QUALITY tube pan which has been well sprayed with non-stick spray and lightly floured, pour the cake mixture into the pan, lightly spreading it evenly.
  • On top of the cake batter, place your pineapple slices, lightly pushing them into the batter. If you have extra room, you might like to put a few cherries too for color.
  • Bake this at 275 degrees for 2 ½ hours. After an hour or so, the top will begin to get a darker brown. When it gets to the point of brown that I like, I lightly place a piece of foil over the top to keep it from getting too brown.
  • Use a wooden kabob skewer or something similar to test for doneness.
  • Once it is done, remove it from the oven and let it sit for about 20-30 minutes before removing from the pan. I dump mine out on a plate, then get another plate to transfer it so the pineapple/top part is actually on top instead of the bottom.

Yield Makes five 6-inch cakes

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 pound (4 sticks) unsalted butter, room temperature, plus more for pan
2 cups plus 1 tablespoon sugar, divided
12 large eggs
1/2 cup molasses
4 pounds candied and dried fruits, such as citron, lemon peel, orange peel, sour cherries, apricots, and golden raisins, chopped, divided (12 cups)
2 pounds nuts, such as walnuts and pecans, coarsely chopped (8 cups)
2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons ground allspice
2/3 cup brandy, divided
Glaceed fruits, such as figs, oranges, pears, apricots, peaches, and pineapple, for garnish
Candied cherries and kumquats, for garnish
1 cup apricot jam

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 275 degrees. Butter five 6-by-2-inch round cake pans. Butter five strips of 18-by-3-inch parchment paper to form a collar for each pan.
  • Cream butter and 2 cups sugar in the bowl of an electric mixer until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Add eggs one at a time. Mix in molasses and 2 cups of candied fruit, blending well. Remove batter to a large bowl and add one-quarter of the nuts. Sift in flour and allspice 1 cup at a time, mixing well between additions. Add remaining candied fruit and nuts, stirring with a spoon. Divide batter evenly among pans; bake until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, 3 to 3 1/2 hours. While still warm, brush with 1/3 cup brandy mixed with remaining 1 tablespoon sugar. Let cool on wire rack.
  • Gently remove cakes from pans and remove paper collars. Decorate cakes with glaceed fruits and candied cherries and kumquats. Heat apricot jam and remaining 1/3 cup brandy in a small saucepan over medium heat. Strain and brush over fruits to hold in place.

MAMA'S WHITE FRUIT CAKE (FAMILY FAVORITE)



Mama's White Fruit Cake (Family Favorite) image

This is definitely not your ordinary fruitcake. So yummy! The addition of lemon extract gives a different flavor to this fruitcake. Guests will be asking for a second piece of this!

Provided by Rose Mary Mogan

Categories     Other Desserts

Time 3h5m

Number Of Ingredients 7

4 c all purpose flour
1 lb butter, softened, room temperature
1 lb candied cherries, halved
2 oz pure lemon extract (4 tablespoons or 1/4 cup)
2 c sugar
6 extra large eggs, separated
4 c pecans, chopped

Steps:

  • 1. PREHEAT OVEN TO 250 DEGREES F. Line a 12 cup bundt pan with greased parchment paper or brown paper bag, & then dust with flour, and set aside. NOTE: With improvements in technology over the years, you can now spray pan liberally with Bakers Joy, and eliminate the use of the Brown Paper Bag.
  • 2. Cream butter & sugar in a large bowl with an electric mixer until light and fluffy. Add egg yolks one at a time, beating well after each addition.
  • 3. Gradually add the flour, a little at a time. Stir in the cherries and pecans. When the batter becomes stiff, add the lemon extract, mixing well until blended.
  • 4. I prefer using both green & red cherries to add extra color to the cake.
  • 5. In a separate bowl beat the egg whites until stiff peaks form, but are not dry. Fold into the cake batter until blended. Spread batter evenly into the prepared pan and bake in preheated 250 degree F. oven for 2 1/2 hours.
  • 6. Cool the cake in pan on a rack for 1 hour. Invert cake onto rack. Remove liner, and cool completely, right- side up.
  • 7. This recipe is dedicated to the memory of my mother Barbara S. Goldmon, my first culinary instructor, that had so much patience to teach me what she knew how to do best. She made this cake for as long as I can remember, and each time I make it, it reminds me of her, and her true patience. If you want to know patience try cooking this cake at 250 degrees for 2 and a half hours in a wood stove, where you need to constantly add wood to maintain the temperature. That's patience my friend. Here is to you mama with love.
  • 8. I just made this cake for the first time WITHOUT THE BROWN PAPER BAG, OR PARCHMENT PAPER. I used the BAKERS JOY, AND THE CAKE TURNED OUT WONDERFULLY. jUST THOUGHT YOU WOULD LIKE TO KNOW. I have made it for years strickly as it was written, but now I know if I use BAKERS JOY, I do not need the parchment paper or brown bag. YIPPEE.
  • 9. This is a sliced platter of this delicious cake.

CHRISTMAS WHITE FRUIT CAKE



Christmas White Fruit Cake image

We live on the east coast of Canada in the maritimes. We have a strong Irish/Scottish/English background. This recipe is a family heirloom recipe, probably Irish in origin as it comes from my maternal grandmother who was first generation Canadian of Irish descent.

Provided by Chef burnt toast

Categories     Dessert

Time 1h15m

Yield 1 cake, 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

3/4 cup butter
1 cup white sugar
4 eggs
1 lb white raisins (seedless)
1 cup blanched almond
1 cup candied red cherries
1 cup candied green cherries
1 cup candied pineapple
2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon vanilla

Steps:

  • Stir some flour into fruit mixture so it doesn't stick together. I use a little (like a tablespoon from the 2 1/4 cups for the cake).
  • Cream the butter, sugar and eggs.
  • Mix together the dry ingredients and add to the creamed ingredients.
  • Stir in the fruit and nuts (I usually omit the nuts) and add more fruit to make up the volume.
  • Bake in a 300oF oven for an hour, but check the cake for doneness with a wooden tooth pick to make sure it is cooked.
  • My mother's only directions are: bake at 300oF for a little longer than an hour and mix together like a cake.
