Fruit Cake

Ingredients
1-1/2 cups liquid coffee
1 (15-ounce) box raisins
1-1/2 tsp baking soda
3/4 cup cooking oil
2 cups sugar
3 eggs
3 cups flour
1/4 tsp baking powder
2 tsp salt
1 tsp cinnamon
1 tsp allspice
1/2 tsp ground cloves
1/2 tsp mace
8 ounces walnuts, chopped
1 jar maraschino cherries, undrained
1 pound mixed fruit

Instructions
Boil raisins in coffee. (Use leftover coffee.) Add baking soda and let stand until cool.

Cream together oil, sugar and eggs. Add flour, baking powder, spices and nuts, adding cherry juice and coffee to make mixing easier. Fold in cherries, raisins and mixed fruit. Spoon into 4-5 small greased and floured loaf pans.

Bake at 325 degrees F. for about 1 hour and 20 minutes. Cake is done when it springs back to a light touch. When completely cooled, wrap in aluminum foil.

Yield: makes many servings; you put in or take away thats how you do it
