Steps:
- Preheat the oven to gas mark 6 (200 degrees Celcius) and line a cake tin with cupcake cases.
- Cream the margarine and sugar together in a large mixing bowl until soft and fluffy. This should not take long if you are using soft margarine.
- Sieve in the flour and add in the eggs. Mix the ingredients together until everything is well combined and smooth.
- At this point you can add the cinnamon. Add the desired amount of cinnamon one teaspoon at a time, mixing until you are satisfied with the colour of the mixture. About 1-2 teaspoons gives you the result in the photo.
- Add in the raisins or dried fruit and briefly mix to incorporate.
- Using two tablespoons, spoon one tablespoon of the mixture into each cupcake case. Divide the mixture equally between all cases, scraping clean each spoon.
- Bake in the oven for 15-20 minutes until golden brown. These cakes taste light and fluffy hot and denser when cool.

MINI FRUITCAKES
Fruitcake always looked so festive to me but I did not like the hard citron fruit so I came up with my own recipe using dried fruits and nuts. I place these in Christmas themed petit fours paper cups and give them to neighbors and friends along with the many other cookies and candies I bake. These keep well in the freezer in an airtight container. Just thaw to room temperature and they taste fresh baked and moist. -Lisa McDermith, Highland, California
