Decadent white chocolate almond cake.
Ingredients:
  • 170.00 gm sultanas
  • 250.00 ml currants
  • 125.00 ml glace cherries
  • 125.00 ml slivered almonds
  • 42.00 gm orange juice
  • 250g butter, room temperature
  • 180.00 gm brown sugar
  • 150g white chocolate, roughly chopped
  • 625.00 ml plain flour, sifted
  • 128.75 gm milk
  • 50g flaked almonds
  • 1 orange rind, grated
  • 3 eggs
Instructions:
  • Preheat your oven to 160C or 140C for fan-forced. Grease a 23cm round cake pan and line the base and sides with two layers of baking paper, making sure to extend the paper 5cm above the edge of the pan.
  • In a large bowl, mix together sultanas, currants, cherries, almonds, orange rind, and juice. Let it soak for 2 hours.
  • With electric beaters, cream together butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add eggs one at a time, mixing thoroughly after each addition. Gently mix in fruit and chocolate. Alternately fold in flour and baking powder with milk, starting and finishing with flour. Transfer the mixture into the prepared pan and level the top with a metal spatula.
  • Sprinkle flaked almonds generously over the cake. Bake for 2-2.5 hours until a skewer inserted in the center comes out clean. Let it cool in the pan.
