I was really happy with it. But it has to be made a few days ahead of time, because it takes the Jack about two days to evaporate and if you try it before then your sinuses will regret it.
I’ve been trying to get around to my fruitcakes for the last few weeks. I’ve never made them with booze, but want to try.
This one from ‘Fine Cooking’ looks good:

I don’t understand why people don’t like fruitcake - my husband and I love it. When we make it, we keep some in the deep freeze to snack on all year long.
(I think I blame Johnny Carson, and his old joke from the 1960s, about how ‘there’s only one fruitcake in the world’ and it is just eternally re-gifted...:-)
