Steps:
- Mix fruit, raisins, currants and brandy.
- Let sit overnight.
- In the morning, cream together the brown sugar, butter and egg.
- Mix flour, salt, baking soda and spices.
- Add to egg mixture.
- Mix well and stir in marinated fruit.
- Add walnuts if desired. (I do half with, half without nuts.).
- Fill paper lined muffin cups 1/2 full.

- I gnerally mark the plain cakes with a 1/2 glace cherry and the ones with the nuts with a 1/2 walnut.

[email protected]Not bad, but not great either. I think I'll stick to my usual fruitcake recipe.

[email protected]These were okay, but not as good as I was hoping. The texture was a bit too dense and the flavor was a little bland.

[email protected]I followed the recipe exactly, but my mini fruitcakes turned out dry and crumbly. Not sure what went wrong. :(

[email protected]These mini fruitcakes were a bit too dense for my taste, but the flavor was still good. I think I'll try a different recipe next time.
