Combine butter and ¼ cup sugar in a large mixing bowl; beat with a wooden spoon until well blended.
Add eggs and molasses, mixing well.
Dredge candied fruits and pecans in 2 tablespoon flour; set aside.
Combine remaining flour and next 5 ingredients; add to creamed mixture alternately with milk, beginning and ending with flour mixture.
Stir fruit mixture into batter.
Spoon batter into a greased and floured 2 quart ring mold.
Cover with foil.
Bake at 350℉ (180℃) for 1½ hours. Unmold onto serving platter.
Spoon Brandy Sauce over pudding. If desired, soak sugar cubes in lemon extract.
Arrange soaked sugar cubes evenly around heat-proof serving platter, and ignite just before serving.
