By: PLR

What are the holidays without the traditional fruitcake?

Ingredients:

2 1/2 cups sifted all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
2 eggs, lightly beaten
1 (28 ounce) jar prepared mincemeat pie filling
1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
1 cup chopped walnuts
2 cups candied mixed fruit

Instructions:

Grease the cake pans and line with wax paper.  Sift flour and baking soda together.  Mix together mincemeat, eggs, milk, fruit and nuts in a large bowl.  Add the flour gradually to the mixture.  Pour into your prepared pans (look for fun wreath shaped cake pans if you're gift giving your fruit cake!)  Bake for 2 hours at 300 degrees F, tops will be golden brown.  Cool on wire rack and remove wax paper.
