<\/p>\n

Forget everything you think you know about fruitcake. This Southern-style Blonde Fruitcake Recipe<\/strong> is light, buttery, and absolutely packed with candied fruits and pecans. I\u2019ve been making this same cake every Christmas since the early \u201890s, and it\u2019s one of those traditions that just sticks. It\u2019s rich, festive, and a beautiful addition to the holiday table.<\/p>\n

Fruitcake. That most maligned of holiday desserts. The butt of hundreds of holiday jokes.<\/p>\n

\"A\"A<\/div>\n

Theories abound about fruitcake. Some people say there\u2019s really only one, and it gets passed from person to person. Other people swear it\u2019s best used as the filler for potholes. And, honestly, there are some fruitcake recipes that are deserving of that treatment.<\/p>\n

Still others adore fruitcakes with a rich, dark, candied texture. People seem to be of two minds about fruitcake; they either love it or they don\u2019t. Not much ambivalence about fruitcake.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt turned out beyond all expectations! I served this after a family get together dinner, and all said this is excellent!
