 --------  ------------  --------------------------------
    1 1/2   c            Seedless raisins
    1 1/2   c            Pitted dates
    1       lb           Nuts of choice (I always use
                         -pecans)
      1/2   lb           Red candied cherries
      1/2   lb           Green candied cherries
      1/2   lb           Candied pineapple
    1       cn           Sweetened conden. milk
    1 1/2   c            Crushed graham crackers
                         To 2 1/2 c.
                         -(my favorite) or
                         -vanilla wafers
                         -Butter to grease loaf pans
                         -or ring mold
 
   Combine all ingredents except crushed cookies.  (I
   leave my fruit and nuts whole but may be cut up if
   your wish.)  Mix well to distribute all the fruit and
   nuts in the milk.  Gradually add the crushed cookies
   to the mixture and stir.  As soon as the mixture is
   not “real” sticky you will know you have enough
   crushed cookies mixed in. Butter your loaf or ring pan
   very well and spoon in the fruit cake mixture. Press
   down firmly with the back of a greased spoon (I just
   grease my “clean” hands and push the mixture down to
   pack it well.) Cover with plastic wrap or foil and
   place in the refridg. for at least 2 days. When ready
   to serve, remove from refridg. and tip out on a
   serving plate. IF there are any leftovers....;) you
   should store back in the refridg.
