Apple&Apricots Christmas Cake

I made this last night and it was a Christmas cake of dreams......

• Preheat the oven at 180C.
• Butter a circular cake tin (usual size).
• In a container put 4-6 halves of apricots (canned in syrup), 1/2 cup (like a coffee mug) worth of the syrup, 1/2 a lemon juice, a bottle cup of dessert wine (like marsala), 2 apples cut in in slices, a spoon of tricle, a spoon of sugar, 1 spoon of cinnamon and 1 spoon of nutmeg. There should be enough liquid/spices to cover all the fruit - if not add a bit of syrup/spices.
• Beat 3 eggs with a cup of sugar until fluffy.
• Add 1/3 of a butter pannier and 2 spoons of extra virgin olive oil - beat until fluffy; 
• Add the zest of 1 lemon - keep beating;
• Add 1 mug of vanilla yogurt - keep beating;
• Add the juice from the fruit- keep beating until all ingredients have been mixed thoroughly;
• Slowly add 2 1/2 to 3 mugs of self rising flour, carefully beating it in. The cake mix has to be soft but not runny.
• Pour the mix in the tin, cover with the apples and apricots (the fruit has to cover the whole top of the cake);
• Put in the oven (same temperature) for about 35-40 minutes (start checking after 30 minutes) - the cake is cooked when you can put a knife through it and it comes out clean/mostly clean.
• Let cool before eating.
