Wonderfully Rich and Dark Christmas Cake
Ingredients

  • 1 pound whole, or half, walnuts (or pecans or blanched almonds if you wish)
  • 1 pound mixed peel
  • 1 pound glazed cherries
  • ¼ pound glazed pineapple
  • ¼ cup flour (this is to coat the fruit; you will need more flour later)

  • 2 ¾ cups all-purpose flour
  • ¾ tablespoon cloves
  • ¾ tablespoon nutmeg
