Name: Kohl's Fruit Cake
Ingredients: 1 Recipe

Who you are is more important than what you say. Bottom line: The quality of your own spiritual life is of greatest importance to your child’s spiritual development. This was one of the most important insights of the Puritans on the subject of the family. Here is what two of them wrote: “Precept without patterns will do little good; you must lead [children] to Christ by examples as well as counsel; you must set yourselves first, and speak by lives as well as words; you must live religion as well as talk religion” (Eleazar Mather). “Be sure to set good example before your children… Other methods of instruction probably will not do much good, if you don’t teach them by a godly example. Don’t think your children will mind the good rules you give them if you act contrary to those rules yourselves… If your counsels are good, and your examples evil, your children will be more like to be hurt by the latter, than benefited by the former” (Benjamin Wadsworth).

INSTRUCTIONS

(We replaced the *ugh* raisins with apricots or left them out all together)
First: Get out an angel food cake pan or two loaf pans and
line them with brown paper (clean grocery sacks are okay)
Second:  Mix together, then beat vigorously for 2 minutes:
1 cup good cooking oil 4 eggs 1 1/2 cups brown sugar, firmly packed
Third: Sift together:
2 cups sifted flour 1 teaspoon baking powder 2 teaspoons salt 2 teaspoons
allspice 1 teaspoon gound cloves
Fourth: Stir the flour mixture into the egg mixture alternately with 1 cup
juice, wine, brandy, or rum.
Fifth: Mix 1 cup sifted flour into:
1 cup sliced pineapple (special jars for fruit cakes) 1 1/2 cups whole
cherries (special for fruit cakes) 1 cup dates 1 cup apricots or raisins 1
cup mixed fruit (special jars for fruit cakes) 3 cups whole pecans
Sixth: Pour the batter over the fruit mixture, mixing well. Pour batter
into the lined pan(s). Place a pan of water on the lower rack of the oven.
In a preheated 275 degree oven, bake 2 1/2 to 3 hours. Let cool at least 15
minutes before removing paper. Then wrap cake in a cheese cloth and store
in cool, dry place - such as a cake tin or tupperware.
NOTE: For a "Drinking Age Fruitcake" - pour rum or branding over the
cake(s) every few days. Requires 4 quarts, or about 1 1/2 cups for each 1/2
pound of fruit cake.
TIPS: Glaze will not stick to a fruit cake soaked with rum or brandy. If
you don't want your fruitcake soaked with rum or brandy, then prepare a
glaze of:
2 tablespoons brown sugar 1 tablespoon corn syrup 2 tablespoons water
Boil for 2 minutes, and then brush over the cake. Decorate the cake with
fruit and nuts just before using.
Suggestions: Make some Rum Sticks by slicing cake into "sticks" and soaking
them with rum or brandy until they are nearly dripping!
