Ingredients
Method
1.Preheat oven to 150°C. Lightly grease 2 x 6 hole christmas-tree shaped mini cake pans.
2.In a medium saucepan, combine fruit, butter, brown sugar and rum. Stir over low heat, without boiling, until melted and sugar has dissolved. Simmer for 4-5 minutes, without stirring, until thickened slightly. Remove from heat. Stir in soda. Transfer mixture to a large bowl. Allow to cool.
3.Sift flour and spice together and fold into fruit mixture with eggs. Divide among recesses. Top evenly with combined nuts.
4.Bake for 30-35 minutes until cooked when tested with a skewer. Cool in pan for 5 minutes before turning onto a wire rack, placed over a baking-paper lined oven tray, to cool completely.
5.Combine caster sugar and water in a small saucepan. Stir over low heat, without boiling, until sugar dissolves. Bring to the boil on high. Boil without stirring for 8-10 minutes until golden. Drizzle toffee over cakes. Allow to cool. Wrap in cellophane or boxes and tie with ribbons.
These pans come in a tray like a muffin pan and are available from specialty kitchenware shops. Use a 12 hole medium muffin pan instead if you like.
