List of Ingredients




1 cup Granulated Sugar
1 large Egg
3/4 cup Milk
1 tsp. Vanilla Extract
1 tsp. Angostura Bitters
1/2 cup Butter, softened
3 cups All-purpose Flour
3 tsp. Baking Powder
1/2 cup Mixed Peel
1 cup Raisins
1/2 cup Maraschino Cherries
1/2 cup Currants

1. Pre-heat the oven to 350-F degrees and lightly oil a 9-inch by 5-inch bread pan.
2. In a mixing bowl, blend together the grated coconut, sugar, egg, and milk.
3. Add the vanilla, bitters, and butter; cream the mixture until thoroughly blended.
4. Sift together the flour and the baking powder; add to the coconut-egg mixture.
5. Add the mixed peel, raisins, maraschino cherries, and currants to the mix. Stir well with a wooden spoon to blend the fruits through the dough-like batter.
