1 cup granulated sugar
2 beaten egggs
1 tsp caraway seed
1/3 cup candied orange peel
pinch of nutmeg
1 cup flour
1/2 tsp baking powder
1/4 cup brandy or light cream

Cream together butter and sugar.  Gradually add the beaten eggs
and a little flour at the same time to prevent curdling.  Mix in
the caraway seed, candied peel and a pinch of nutmeg.  Carefully
incorporate the rest of the flour sifted with the baking powder.
A little brandy can be added as liquid, but this is optional.  Milk
or light cream may be substituted.  The cake will keep longer with
the brandy.  Bake 1 hour at 400 degrees.
