An English Christmas cake is a classic, spiced cake filled with dried fruit, nuts, and warm Christmas spices. It is best when left to mature for several weeks, which gives it a deep, rich flavor. The Christmas cake is a dense and substantial cake, so it can easily be enjoyed as a piece of "confectionery." The cake can be stored for several months if kept covered in a cool place.

Bailey Layer Cake
My recipe for a delicious layer cake with raspberry mousse and chocolate ganache. The cake is made with Bailey's in both the ganache and buttercream, providing a lovely soft and creamy Bailey's flavor to the cake. I used the original Bailey's, but feel free to try one of the many other variants, such as Bailey's with caramel.
