POOR MANS CAKE III
This recipe if from the l930's. My Grandmother gave it to my Mother and she gave it to me. Now I am a grandmother and passed it down to my kids. It's really good. You don't have to dirty your mixer for this one, just a big bowl.

Steps:
- Bring to a boil the fruit, nuts, extract, salt, sugar, shortening and coffee.
- Continue to cook until raisins swell and liquid becomes syrupy; cool completely.
- Stir together the flour, baking soda and baking powder.
- Add to fruit mixture and combine thoroughly.
- Pour into a greased 10-inch tube pan and bake at 325° about an hour (if heavy with fruit). Check with tester to be sure cake is done.
- Remove from pan and cool completely on wire rack.
- At this point I soak a clean piece of cheesecloth in liquor; brandy, rum, even wine.
- Wrap the cake with the cloth and in foil--store in COLD place--check often, resoak as needed.
- There are no exact measurements for the fruit in this recipe--the original recipe stated "fruits, nuts & peels-whatever you have on hand".
- This was done because it was wartime and things for fancy baking were not always available.
