GOOD FRUITCAKE RECIPE - NYT COOKING
The ridicule that most fruitcakes face has everything to do with bad recipes, which skimp on fruit and load on the batter. In a good fruitcake the batter should barely be perceptible, acting merely as adhesive to bind the fruit and nuts. Broken down into its parts, a good fruitcake contains ingredients that most people love: plump dates, candied cherries, almond extract, pecans, walnuts and sugar. And when it comes out of the oven, it is showered in whiskey. This is by no means an inexpensive cake to make, and that is largely why it became a traditional gift. It is a cake that you wouldn't make for yourself. It is a treat.

  • While cakes are still hot, brush lightly with corn syrup. Let cool 30 minutes, then spoon Armagnac on top. When completely cool, remove cakes from pan base and peel off parchment paper on bottom. If not eating right away, wrap fruitcakes in plastic wrap. They will keep for two months in refrigerator. If storing, sprinkle with more Armagnac an hour before serving.

REAL OLD-FASHIONED FRUITCAKE RECIPE | MYRECIPES
Redolent of fragrant spices, this homemade fruitcake will remind you why it became a holiday classic. Look for candied citron in gourmet stores, or buy it online from Vine Tree Orchards (www.vinetreeorchards.com). Store leftover citron in a zip-top plastic bag in the freezer. You can substitute candied pineapple for the citron. Make the fruitcake at least a day ahead so the flavors have time to meld. To freeze, wrap cake in layers of plastic wrap, and place in a zip-top plastic freezer bag. Store up to one month.
