List of Ingredients




3/4 cup sifted flour
3/4 cup sugar
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup well drained Maraschino cherries
3 cups shelled Brazil nuts
1 pound pitted dates
3 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla


Recipe



Grease a 9-inch by 5-inch loaf pan and line it with waxed paper. Heat the oven to 300 degrees.

In a large bowl, put the nuts, dates, and cherries. Sift over them the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Mix with your hands until the fruit is well coated.

Beat the eggs until they are foamy. Beat in vanilla.

Stir into the fruit-nut mixture until well mixed. Spread the batter evenly in the loaf pan. Bake for 1 hour 45 minutes.

Cool the cake on a rack for 15 minutes, then remove it from the cake pan, peal off the waxed paper, and cool it the rest of the way on the rack.

Wrap the cake in foil and store it in the refrigerator.
