Prepare a 17,5 cm or 7 inch cake tin greased with butter or cooking spray. Alternatively use a round bottom glass, stainless steel bowl or suitable container that will fit loosely inside your pressure cooker. While cooking cover the container with a lid or tie a foil cover on top with string. Place a trivet or suitable stand on the bottom of your pressure cooker, add two cups of water. The bake tin or bowl must not touch the bottom of the cooker during cooking.
In a large mixing bowl cream the butter and sugar till light then mix in the eggs one by one. Sift in the flour, salt and baking power, mix till well combined.
Add the fruit mixture to the batter and combine till well blended. Add mixture to baking tin and level top with a spatula.
Cover the baking tin with a lid or place a piece of aluminum foil on top and tie off with string. This will stop water from collecting on top of cake. Place in pressure cooker and cook for 1 1/2 hours.
Release pressure from cooker and remove baking tin. Leave cake to stand in tin for two hours to cool then remove cake by turning upside down on cooling rack. Leave cake to cool completely before covering in aluminum foil and store in fridge. Optionally feed the cake 25ml of brandy on a weekly basis by pouring on top and then resealing the foil. Slice cake cold from fridge and serve.
