Ingredients:

Directions:

  1. In a large bowl, dissolve yeast in warm water. Add the milk, butter, sugar, eggs, salt, spices and 2 cups flour. Beat on medium speed for 2 minutes. Stir in enough remaining flour to form a firm dough (do not knead). Cover and let rise in a warm place for 20 minutes.
  2. Stir dough down. Stir in fruit, raisins, nuts and orange peel. Transfer to a greased 10-in. fluted tube pan. Cover and let rise until doubled, about 1-1/2 hours.
  3. Bake at 375° for 35-40 minutes or until golden brown. Cool for 5 minutes before removing from pan to a wire rack to cool completely.
  4. For glaze, in a bowl, combine sugar, orange peel and enough orange juice to achieve drizzling consistency; spoon over cake. Decorate with cherries. Yield: 14-16 servings.
