My siblings and I grew up on this fruitcake and my mom loved to make it for us.

I make this every Christmas for my family. Enjoy.

Ingredients

  • 2 large eggs

  • 1 jar of Nonesuch mincemeat (see note below)

  • 2 cups of mixed candied fruit

  • 2.5 cups of all-purpose flour

  • 1 teaspoon baking soda


Directions

  1. Combine eggs, sweetened condensed milk, and mincemeat.

  2. Stir in candied fruit.

  3. Thoroughly fold in flour and baking soda.


Baking

  1. My mom always baked this in a prepared bundt pan - 2 hours at 300°.

If you cannot find a jar of mincemeat in the stores, you can order it online.
