Fruit cake in a bundt pan?

9. OK

Soak 5 cups of mixed dried fruit in Irish whisky ( I use Irish Mist for the honey overtones)
1 cup walnuts
1 cup honey
1 tablespoon cinnamon
3/4 teaspoon cardomen
1/2 teasoon all spice
1/2 teaspoon cloves
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
1/2 cup softened butter
2 teaspoons baking soda
1 cup packed dark brown sugar
5 egg yolks
4 cups sifted flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
5 egg whites stiffly beaten with 1 tablespoon sugar.

1. Mix flour, spices, salt, baking powder and baking soda

2. Beat butter and sugar until light and fluffy.

3. Add egg yolks one at a time, beating after each.

4. Stir in flour and honey mixture.

5. Stir in fruit and nuts.

6. fold in egg whites

7. Pour into greased angel food cake pan, or 2 7 or 8 inch loaf pans, or deep cake pan.

Bake at 325 for 2 to 2 1/2 hours depending on pans used. Watch the edges to insure they don't get scorched.

I might reset my oven to 300 this year and/or use a water bath.

If you make this ahead, keep the cake on a plastic or glass dish and liberally add whisky from time to time until Christmas.
