Brandy cake with raisins and nuts (Cake de pasas y nueces con Brandy)



I wasn't sure  to do for this post.
 Even I have apricots (and recipes) I wanted something with apples, but I finally decided by this cake of raisins, nuts and brandy and was wonderful!
The recipe is from Paula Magazine (A very antique Chilean magazine) 
Magazine cuisine Paula 1997 (De Rosario Guzman)


Im sharing with Cook your books

1 cup raisins
1 cup chopped walnuts
3 cups  all purpose flour
200 g butter (room temperature)

In another bowl beat butter (at room temperature) with electric mixer until foamy, add sugar slowly.
