**This recipe is from cookbook that came with 12 qt cooker. You may have to adjust to fit in your cooker.You need 2 quarts of water in the 12 qt cooker. Check what your book suggests when baking.I'd think you will need 4-5 cups water in a 4 quart cooker.

If this isn't what you wanted, let me know as there is also one for Dark Fruit Cake. That one uses orange juice and spices like allspice, cinnamon, and cloves.
