No festive season is complete without fruit cake. There were so many different ways to make one. But I always prefer the one with less fruit like this Light Fruit Cake. This Buttery Light Fruit Cake will cut down the time you soak the dry fruit. Soak the fruit in orange juice, microwave for a minute to plump them then leave to cool.
If you mix your own dry fruits, you need to add candied red and green cherries to the batter. It would look prettier with those. I used store bought mixed fruit that include both cherries.
The sweetness was just right, adding more sugar isn't necessary. We get natural sugar from the dry fruits.
This Buttery Light Fruit Cake is so simple to make yet tastes awesome. I used this recipe successfully to get a quick festive treat. If desired, decorate with additional candied fruits and nuts.
