2-ingredient fruit cake

It only takes just two ingredients to make this delicious, tender fruit cake. Perfect for those times you’ve run out of milk or have just used up the last egg in the carton, this 2-ingredient fruit cake couldn't be any simpler to make. It's as easy as combining a packet of store-bought cake mix with a can of mixed fruit (including the juice) - yep, that's it! I’ve used mixed fruit in this version but you could use any canned fruit you like (peaches or pineapple would also work well with vanilla cake mix). You could even switch out the vanilla cake mix for chocolate and use canned cherries for a black forest twist. This is such a versatile cake mix and can be baked in a muffin pan or a 20cm (base size) round or square cake pan, if you prefer. Just make sure to adjust the cooking time as it will vary depending on the pan you use. This cake is delicious eaten warm - try serving it with some vanilla ice-cream, custard or a dollop of double cream for a little extra indulgence. - Elisa Pietrantonio
