My thoughts:
I genuinely made these lastly twelvemonth hence precisely about Christmas, I only took precisely about pictures inward add-on to wrote upwards the recipe to relieve for this year. I endeavour not to shipping service seasonal recipes also precisely about the opor-garai hence you lot lot genuinely convey 4th dimension to buy the ingredients inward add-on to build the recipe. I don't assume close people convey fruit cake mix candied fruit at their fingertips!

This 4th dimension lastly twelvemonth I was reading  Jenny Han's To All the Boys I Loved Before trilogy when they finally came available to download from the library after on the popularity of the Netflix pic that summer. The principal character, Lara Jean bakes a lot inwards the books inward add-on to inwards 1 bulk her friend Peter was existent insistent that she build fruitcake cookies. I honestly had never heard of fruitcake cookies before but I had a ton of candied fruit leftover from developing recipes for a client inward add-on to stance why not bird it a try? They seemed perfect for the season. There were existent few details of what these cookies were genuinely similar inwards the bulk hence I started from scratch.

I wanted to bird cookies to my neighbors hence I stance bar cookies mightiness alive easier to than a rolled or drop cookies (Jenny Han genuinely needs to starting 4th dimension including recipes inwards her books) for the yield I wanted inward add-on to to ensure that each seize alongside teeth had a proficient chunk of fruit and/or nuts inwards it. Plus they hold off hence pretty all sliced up!

These bars are existent fruit inward add-on to nut packed inward add-on to convey all of the rich flavors of fruitcake but hopefully none of the negative associations regular fruitcake has acquired. They are existent much a cookie inwards texture. Don't skip the coating the fruit inward add-on to nuts inwards flour step--this ensures that they don't stick together, evenly distribute inwards the dough inward add-on to don't sink to the bottom piece baking.

Everyone who had these loved them! Even people who didn't hateful value they liked fruitcake went back for me.
