Oh, thank you for reminding me, otherwise I was busy ... I would have woken up before Christmas ...

And I gradually buy everything for the filling. All this has become expensive, you cannot master it at once. I'll get my pension and buy the missing raisins and spices to soak at 18-19. But I couldn't buy my favorite cognac for impregnation (Tetroni), nowhere else. We'll have to replace it with another alcohol.

Come on, Raisin, you can't pull the ears away from the deliciousness. I looked at dried cranberries, I had not seen before. I tried it, I liked it. Now, perhaps even in a store, you can buy cheaper if the delivery is old, otherwise the Uzbeks began to tear like that

Girls! I'm starting to bake the first batch !!!

Elena, good luck!
elena i
Thank you! I already have dried fruits from the sixth, a new batch, I have to bake and there is no time! I'll try to bake more today. Smell in the kitchen, I tell you !!!! why no one bakes anymore ?? I started early ???
GenyaF
Elena, the Orthodox tomorrow or the day after tomorrow are just starting to soak the filling, and we will bake in another week so that the cake is ready for our Christmas on January 7th. And those who celebrate in December bake this week. Cupcake before the holiday should soak and drink brandy for 6 weeks. This, if you follow the tradition. In general, you can bake when you want)))

Zhenya, push me in the side, please, so that I don't waste time
GenyaF
I push, you can soak the filling tomorrow or the day after tomorrow. I will be tomorrow
Borisyonok
GenyaF, Zhenya! I join your friendly company. Today I bought dried fruits, nuts and cognac. Tomorrow I will soak. I want to start right away with a double portion. Part of "give out" for the New Year to children and grandchildren, well, and to their friends who will come to us to celebrate the holiday. And leave the second portion for Christmas, we usually celebrate it with a narrower circle.
So if there are questions about the process, I will torment you with questions.
elena i
I think that a couple of weeks in cognac will not be extra!)) We only eat at Christmas))
Scops owl
Girls, and I'm already soaked I decided not to wait 18, otherwise there will be some kind of force majeure and it will not be possible to meet the time. In general, I was reinsured, and Luda wrote in LiveJournal that it is possible to withstand fruits from a week to a month.
Scops owl
Flax, I still have some fruit that year. Then I slowly spent them, they were delicious. Nothing happens to them.

And I got wet today!
GenyaF
And I got wet and now I admire the multi-colored jar ... Holiday-holiday !!!
tuskarora
And I got wet !! The New Year mood begins to arise! I soaked another portion of m for a friend. She is a beginner baker, but really wants to try this cupcake herself. The third year gathers my thoughts. But now there is no way back, I have already soaked the fruit for her.
ElenaMK
I am with you this year too! I just ate all the dates :-) :-) tomorrow I'll buy it and get wet too :-)
elena i
And I, after all, baked the second batch yesterday! beauty! I have dried fruits in a liter jar always stand for force majeure. I add them to cheesecakes and porridge! so the longer, the tastier!

I have gingerbread dough from last year left
elena i
Irina! I also have half a portion, I haven't opened it yet))) Do you think it's good yet?))
Merri
Elena, looked at him, absolutely wonderful!
izumka
I am reporting! Yesterday evening I baked, watered, covered until morning. Today I swaddled in bags and in a locker for a week until the next 100g
Merri
izumka, well done! I have to bake today.
elena i
And yesterday I baked the third batch! Now I have half of the table in cupcakes-9 pieces! almost a bottle at a time nourished in them!
Merri
And I'm not lucky! Instead of baking muffins, I'm standing in a traffic jam!
Scops owl
Girls, I baked a batch yesterday and now I'm baking half a batch. Happy as an elephant. My sister called for a chat, as she found out that the baking was immediately rounded out. Here you can feel personal interest.
GenyaF
Girls and I finally baked. We give the light for two hours after six, and then they turned on at night, and I broke away
tuskarora
I got baked yesterday the day before yesterday. Everything is normal as always. Aromas are a pillar. The husband, as always, is hysterical because of the translation of cognac, Portia made a single one, because our dried fruits are very expensive.
eugeshka
Good evening! And this year I decided to bake this handsome man, it's worth getting cold. I also want my husband to make a non-alcoholic version. What do you think, just insist dried fruits in orange juice for a week? And then you need to soak, or bake 2 days before Christmas and not soak? Maybe someone did, share your experience. Thank you.
Scops owl
Zhen, so happy for you. I watched the news today. They gave electricity to Crimea. Hurrah
GenyaF
Larissa, thank you! Electricity is still not enough, but it is already being supplied for a longer time. Now I'll find time to bake painted gingerbread
Scops owl
Girls, I can hardly stand it when I soak the cupcakes. I want to gobble up
Merri
Larissa, do not suffer, eat a piece!
Scops owl
Irin, we're already eating: snezhki: And folded it into presents
Merri
Larissa, Merry Christmas! We have been eating them since 24.12. I came to the conclusion that it is better to bake several cupcakes of this amount in small forms, not in portions, of course, but not in large ones, for sure. And, this time I did more dough, I liked it so much. It turned out softer. In general, the gag starts! And I added my own drying to the fruit mixture - just super!

Irina, how much did you increase the dough? Did you change the baking time?
Merri
Anyuta, I made 2 times more dough, although the fruit-nut mixture was 300 grams more than 1 serving. Ideally, I think 1.5 servings of dough for the specified amount of fruit and nut mixture would be great! Didn't change baking time.
Scops owl
And this year I have few nuts in the dough, just not enough. To me personally. Everyone likes it. I did a double dose too. It seemed a bit heavy. It takes a lot of time to anoint, wrap. But the result pleases
Merry Christmas my dears!
Mousekamar
Well, when will I eat them !? I've been baking for the third year already. This year, everything is exactly on time - the cupcake lasted for the entire fast, it was started on Christmas. Super! Everything is exactly according to the recipe, I don't change anything - it turns out great !!! Huge thanks to the author for the recipe !!!!
Scops owl
But I have this year with two servings of muffins. We finish the last one. Part of course gave away. Small ones are convenient to put in paper and bags or gift boxes.

Merri
Larissa, Scops owl, please tell us in more detail, how do you make such beauty from above? After baking or baking like this?
Scops owl
Merri Irin, I decorate like this later. Covered with mastic, it seemed very sweet. Stopped at this option, dried fruits and nuts. Especially pecans look beautiful like a flower. But this year the decoration, so to speak, is an economical option, without nuts. Pour sugar syrup on top. Yes, I forgot, I spread the raisins on the apricot jam, this year it's 2 st. l. alcohol added as a preservative. I thought they would stay for a long time, naive
Merri
Larissa, you can't preserve from domestic gluttons!
Scops owl
Exactly, Irin. I somehow forget about him all the time. First we sing, and then when I remember it turns out to be so little of it
Merri
Larissa, let them burst, and bake for them.

And mine is still alive, half

And here is a fresh photo of a cupcake from the release of December 2014, the smoking room is still alive For me, it's already a little dry, a few pieces still remain - let them lie further

Antonovka I have no words. How can you not gobble it up and still not fight over crumbs? Experimenter.
By the way, figs have fallen in price. Now 450 rubles in the store. I saw and remembered the cupcake.
Merri
Antonovka, Lena, well, willpower! We finished last year in May. I took it to my daughter, so the students grabbed him and collected all the crumbs! Here, I think, in what quantity will I bake it now? There was a double portion last year.

And no matter how many bakes, everything will be small. Eaters are only added.
