BEST BOILED FRUITCAKE

This recipe produces a really moist fruit cake it was given to me by my mom, and it's really easy. My mom uses it for Christmas cake by icing it. I use it for birthdays, Christmas, or just for a treat.

PINEAPPLE FRUITCAKE

I got this recipe from my friend Julie, and her version does not have the mixed spice in it, but I love it with the spice in. Not a traditional fruitcake, but a lovely light fruity cake.
