Average Rating: (4 votes)
Yield: 6 Servings
 
Ingredients
  6   Eggs  
  1  cup Sugar  
  1/2  lb Melted butter  
  1  cup Flour  
  1  tsp Vanilla  
  Fruit stuff:  
  1/2  cup Flour  
  1  lb Candied cherries  
  1  lb Candied pineapple  
  4  cups Chopped pecans  
 
Instructions
 
  1. Batter: Mix batter items together. Flour the fruit stuff items. Place the fruit stuff into a greased Angel Food cake pan (I use a Bunt pan). Pour the batter over the fruit stuff. Bake at 300 degrees until done (about 1 1/2 hour).

 
  2. For a cupcake version: Bake 15 minutes at 300 degrees, brush on Honey. Continue to bake for 15-30 minutes more. (use two cupcake papers per serving).

 
  3. With the cake freshly removed, I use a hypo and inject with one shot of the following: Rum Amaretto (Almond flavour), Triple Sec (Orange flavour), and Grand Marnier (Orange flavour)

 
  4. Make these a month or so early. Wrap in Saran Wrap and place in refrigerator. Bring back to room temperature before serving.

 
  Hope you enjoy this as much as we have.
