This fruitcake is super moist . I made it on Sunday and ate it on Monday and it was like a fruitcake that had been maturing for 3 months. Great if you are behind in your fruitcake baking for christmas. Which is exactly what I want it for.
Read MoreI don't know if I did something wrong but this cake turned out very dry. I'm a pretty good baker and followed the directions to the letter. My oven temp is true and I didn't overbake it. I liked the fact that the puréed apricots went into the batter. Does anyone have any suggestions because I really wanted this recipe to work.

All of Carol's recipes are great. I have tested them time and time again and all over the country I hear the same. I do set my oven on 325 degrees for 1-1/2 hours. It seems to work best for me. instead of the 3
Outrageous used1 cup cut apricots and used the water softened (not mushy) in for (nectar) liquid to cut calories used 8 ounces of dried pineapple and replaced mixed fruit with pecans. Lasted for 2 weeks wrapped in saran.
I don't even like fruitcake that much--or I didn't think I did! But this cake is so moist and awesome I went on an apricot baking spree. My husband thought I was crazy for baking cakes all day until he took a bite. ;]
My go to fruitcake recipe. Have been making this for several years and get requests for this cake year round. I enjoy the cake after a bit of seasoning but is good right out of the oven.

absolutely the best fruit cake i have ever made. the texture and mointness is awesome. use real butter, and add a little coconut flavouring. marvellous, would highly recommend.
