Christmas White Fruit Cake

• 3/4 cup butter
• 1 cup white sugar
• 4 eggs
• 1 lb white raisins (seedless)
• 1 cup blanched almond
• 1 cup candied red cherries
• 1 cup candied green cherries
• 1 cup candied pineapple
• 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
• 2 teaspoons baking powder
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon vanilla

1. Stir some flour into fruit mixture so it doesn't stick together. I use a little (like a tablespoon from the 2 1/4 cups for the cake).
2. Cream the butter, sugar and eggs.
3. Mix together the dry ingredients and add to the creamed ingredients.
4. Stir in the fruit and nuts (I usually omit the nuts) and add more fruit to make up the volume.
5. Bake in a 300oF oven for an hour, but check the cake for doneness with a wooden tooth pick to make sure it is cooked.
6. My mother's only directions are: bake at 300oF for a little longer than an hour and mix together like a cake.
