Old English Fruitcake

We're kicking it back to the old country with this English-style fruitcake. Full of sweet fruit, packed with pecans, and generously spiced, this recipe certainly brings in flavor what most store-bought fruitcakes leave to be desired. You even don't have to worry about preparing it on top of your feast — this fruitcake can be baked weeks in advance, and still taste delicious on Christmas day.
