COCONUT FRUITCAKE
A neighbor gave me this recipe when we first moved to this small town, saying it dated back to the 1800s and everybody in the area made it. I soon discovered why when I took a taste...and I'm not a fruitcake fan! -Lorraine Groh, Ferryville, Wisconsin

[email protected]This coconut fruitcake was a bit too sweet for my taste, but other than that, it was a good cake. The texture was nice and moist, and the coconut flavor was prominent. I think next time I'll try using less sugar.
