My grandmother died on this day last year. In her honor, I am posting her
favorite fruit cake recipe for the holidays. I hope someone reading this
enjoys it. Thank you.

1 pound candied cherries
1 pound candied pineapple
1 pound pitted dates
1 pound chopped pecans
32 ounces flaked coconut
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
28 ounces sweetened condensed milk
2 tablespoons brandy

Preheat oven to 300 degrees. Lightly grease a 10 inch tube pan. Line bottom
of pan with greased parchment paper.

Chop fruit and nuts in a mixing bowl. Add coconut and mix well. Stir in
flour, sweetened condensed milk and brandy.

Pack firmly in tube pan. Bake for 1 and a half hours.
