Directions
Fruitcake Cookies,I know a lot of people that are actually scared of fruitcake, but everyone I know adores these cookies.,Easy to mix up and makes a lot of cookies. I had big problems with the time, mine were done after about 12 minutes, and I burned the first two batches letting them go for 20, and the recipe says 25, which is a real shame as they are good, and I would have liked to have the full batch. So be careful of the timing. The almond extract gives a nice taste and smell and the molasses is a winner too. Compared to the other fruitcake cookies posted, not a lot of fat, which is why I chose it. Thanks!,These are one of the best cookies I have tasted in years. A real old fashioned rich sweet taste. They froze very well. Now I am going to bake a batch to send for a Christmas gift. Thanks so much.
