    Only a day left for Christmas, I am sure many would not have got enough time to bake a traditional fruit cake ,for them today I am sharing an instant microwave and eggless version of Christmas fruit cake ,It requires only 20 mins  from the start to finish baking a cake.
    I adapted the recipe from here , Last minute I dint have enough time to bake a cake ,so I ended up doing microwave cake, It did taste the same without any compromise in taste .Let’s get started now.

    Notes:
     
    • With the prepared batter I got two microwave cakes of the same size.
    • Always fill the bowl half as the cake tends to raise.
    • Allow the cake to cool completely before putting it in fridge.
    • If you don’t prefer Rum you can use grape juice or orange juice to soak the dry fruits. I usually soak my dry fruits in Rum from May to prepare cakes during Christmas.
    • Use ½ cup of water if not using Rum otherwise use ½ cup minus 1 tbsp of Water and 1 tbsp of Rum it really enhances the cake flavour.
