Why I Love This Recipe

Fruitcake has gotten a bad wrap. Jokes has been made about getting one.

George Washington was once told his men was out of ammunition. What should they do?

He said" You have fruitcake, put it to good use."

And many of British was kill that day by fruitcake!(True story)

This is a good fruitcake, it will not kill anyone!


Ingredients You'll Need

2 1/2 Cups flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
2 eggs, slightly beaten
2 2/3 Cups mincemeat
1 can sweetened condensed milk
2 Cups mixed candied fruit
1 Cups walnuts, coarsely chopped
Glazed cherries & pecan or walnut halves, optional


Directions

Questions, Comments & Reviews


I baked this fruitcake today and it was the easiest fruitcake I have ever made and tasted as good or better than the one I have made for years.
I plan to get more ingredients and bake another one tomorrow. Thank you so much for sharing this wonderful recipe with us here at Bakespace.
