I REALLLLLLLY wish I could send you my mother'in-law's fruitcake recipe but she died and my SIL has the recipe and makes us a huge cake for Christmas every year that lasts us all year. It's wonderful. SIL said she will someday give me and another SIL the recipe but not YET! The only thing I know is the base of the fruitcake is an applesauce cake then all the fruit and nuts are added and it's to die for. Send me a PM with your address and I'll send you a chuck after Christmas.
