I think, at least for me, it's two things:<br /><br />1) there is no citron(?), I think that's what it's called, in either of my cookie recipes. That is an ingredient in a lot of fruit cakes and I don't like the taste of that.<br /><br />2) sometime the cake in fruit cake is just a little dry.Cookiebakerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11413271379433727151noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2007203648776117328.post-43027487728380505452011-04-03T13:01:07.310-04:002011-04-03T13:01:07.310-04:00I'm with you both on the anti-fruit cake senti...I'm with you both on the anti-fruit cake sentiments.
