This is a yummy fruitcake cookie recipe.  Perfect for the holidays.
Fruitcake is a deep dark secret delight for many during the holidays.  This is a yummy fruitcake cookie recipe. Perfect for the holidays.My parents love it with a little slice of cheese on it. My husband has recently discovered a love of fruitcake (and hence has decided that he was old). Fruitcake is a long standing holiday tradition and this cookie twist is easy to put together and great for cookie exchanges.
