...brought to you by Recipes EU





Fruit Cake (An Old German Recipe)
2 cup Of sugar
1 cup Butter or shortening*
2 Eggs, slightly beaten
1 1/2 cup Applesauce (unsweetened
-and unseasoned)
1 tsp Vanilla
4 cup Flour
1 tsp Soda
1 tsp Cinnamon
1/4 tsp Nutmeg
1/4 tsp Cloves
1/4 tsp Salt
1 lb Fairly coarse nut meats
1 lb Raisins **

2 LB GUMDROPS



* Reserve 1 Tbsp butter for frying nut meats ** Bleached small white
raisins are better than puffed, seeded. *** Gum drops cut more evenly
if scissors are first dipped into hot water. Use only a few green as
their flavor is so strong, and NO BLACK.

Cream sugar and butter. Add slightly beaten eggs. Add applesause and
vanilla. Sift next 6 dry ingredients and reserve 1 cup. Add dry
ingredients (except for the 1 cup) and mix well. Fry nut meats, heat
well but do not brown, stir constantly.

Flour nut meats, chopped gum drops and raisins in the reserved flour
mixture. This is best done by placing all ingredients into a strong
paper bag and shaking vigorously. Mix with batter.

Line cake pans* with waxed paper. Do not fill pans more than 2/3 full.

Bake in SLOW oven (275 degress) until done. Baking time depends upon
size of cake. 8 1/2 X 4 inch load requires about 2 hrs. DO NOT
OVERBAKE. Cake should be farely moist when done.

Remove waxed paper immediately after removing cake from oven after
baking.

Immediately rewrap COMPLETELY in fresh waxed paper or cellophane.
This will seal in moisture. (Paper in which cake is baked will become
set on cake and difficult to remove later when cold.)

*This recipe makes approximately one 8 1/2 X 4 inch loaf cake and one
8 inch square cake. Cake should keep an indefinite length of time.

Dieting tips

If you want to become thinner and boost your all round shape, then you should make plans to start a meticulously prepared healthy-minded diet. Theoretically, this ought to incorporate 5 portions of fruit & vegetables every day and also require the correct mixture of fat, carbohydrates and proteins.

People starting a weight loss program frequently concentrate upon chain store and brand name food products labelled as 'low-fat'. This is frequently incorrect, seeing that a food product may be significantly reduced in fat, but still dangerously high in calories and carbohydrates.

When devising a weight loss program, the most important step is to make efforts to decrease your intake of fats, refined carbohydrate and salt.
