UPSIDE-DOWN FRUIT CAKE
Whatever your perception of fruit cake is, turn it upside down and inside out, because this is not the rock-hard loaf that's been passed around since times eternal. This version includes all the best of the classic ingredients-brandy, dried fruit, nuts, molasses and warming spices-just rejiggered into a cake that's soft, tender-crumbed and completely irresistible, if we do say so ourselves. It begins by combining dried cherries, apricots and pecans with melted butter and brown sugar. These ingredients go into the pan first and get topped with batter, because this fruit cake is also an upside-down cake. When it's turned out of its pan, the fruits and nuts are glossy, gooey and caramelized, which makes this cake so pretty that it really only needs a dollop of whipped cream to be complete. If you're ready to turn tradition on its head, give this modern take on fruit cake a try!
