Hands up who love Christmas Cake? I am not to much a fan of all the raisins etc, but I do make an exception at Christmas.

 Homemade Christmas cake is the best. Also, are you looking for a Christmas cake recipe anyone? If so I have the perfect recipe to share with you today. You can also make this one up to 3 months before Christmas if you wrap it in foil and keep adding Whiskey onto it. How to make a Christmas cake step by step instructions: Lyle’s Christmas Cake.
