Fruit cakes will never be the same again!
This recipe is extremely moorish and very simple to make. I brought this cake in the office and everyone loved it and had second helpings. The use of spirits is very common in French cooking- even in cakes and the Pimms Winter definitely gave this cake a nice twist. Ideal when you have some dried fruits lying around- I used apricots, apples and raisins. Pimms Winter is just a variation from Pimms, if you can't get hold of it I'm sure the standard Pimms will do!
I apologise for the lack of pics but I did this yesterday evening as an experiment and didn't think about taking pictures. And now most of the cake is gone due to its extreme popularity!

Step 1
First you need to cut the dried fruits in small pieces, place them in a bowl and cover with the Pimms. Let the fruits soak in while you prepare the cake :-)
-
Step 2
Mix together the flour, sugar, eggs, oil and baking powder in a bowl until you get a nice, smooth paste.
-
Step 3
Leave it for 5 minutes then pour the dried fruit and Pimms in the bowl and mix it altogether. If it is a bit runny add some more flour.

Step 4Pour the mix into a silicon tin loaf and cook Gas Mark 6 for about 50 minutes. Check if the cake is cooked through by putting a knife through it- if the blade is dry then your cake is cooked. Leave it to cool on a rack, then enjoy!
