I had a recipe that I thought was for a Dark and Stormy Christmas cake, I had converted it to add lots of apricots in the dried fruit and soaked in apricot brandy that everyone loved. I have looked up Dark and Stormy (as I cannot find the converted recipe anywhere) and it dosn't seem right to fill a 9 inch tin. Has anyone got an apricot Christmas cake recipe that they use please?

Hi sandye I don’t have a recipe that I use, but it piqued my interest so I googled and found quite a few. This one sounds worth a try, I might make one this year:

I made this recipe the other day so thanks for posting. I only made half the recipe minus the brandy I used apple juice instead. It is very moist and tasty I froze half or we would of eaten all of it.
