Iced Fruitcake
Ingredients
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F. Lightly grease and line base and sides of a 4 x 8 inch loaf pan. For the batter, cream butter and sugar together with an electric mixer until light and fluffy. Beat in zest and vanilla. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Sift flour and baking powder together. Fold into creamed mixture alternately with milk. Gently fold in fruit. Pour into prepared pan and bake 1 1/4 hours, until a skewer comes out clean. Cool in pan 10 mins before turning out onto a wire rack to cool completely.
- Meanwhile, for the icing, combine all ingredients in a small saucepan and stir over medium heat until smooth. Spread on cake. When icing has set, cut into slices and serve.
