Directions
(From 'The International Goodwill Recipe Book'....South Africa. Recipe by: Ruby Joffee)
Sift dry ingredients into bowl over whole nuts, chopped dates, and halved cherries. Mix through to coat all nuts, etc. Beat eggs till foamy. Add vanilla. Stir well into mixture. Pour into greased, paper-lined loaf pan (or 8"square pans, or large, shallow rectangle pan). Spread evenly. (batter will be very stiff.) Bake in slow oven...300 deg.F; loaf - 1¾ hours; 2 square pans - 45mins to 1 hour; shallow large pan - 45 mins to 1 hour.
Check with knife for doneness...should come out dry. Loaf - let cool completely, cut very thin slices with bread knife. Others - cool, and cut into squares. Freezes very well, and looks very good.
B'Tay'avon = Bon Apetit!
