Icebox Fruitcake Recipe - (3.6/5) image

Provided by msippigrl

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 (14.4 oz) box graham crackers or honey graham crackers (I used honey)
1 (14 oz) can sweetened condensed milk
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
3/4 cup halved candied red cherries
1/2 cup chopped dried or candied pineapple
1/2 cup chopped dates (or dark raisins)
1 tablespoon sugar
1/2 cup sweetened flaked coconut
1/2 cup coarsely broken walnuts
1 cup coarsely broken pecans

Steps:

  • Chop everything that needs chopping; put the cherries, pineapple, and dates in a mixing bowl. Sprinkle sugar over the fruit and lightly toss together to unstick the fruit. Coarsely break nuts into a separate bowl. Set aside. Coarsely break apart the graham crackers then pulse in a food processor until fine crumbs. (I did this in 3 batches). Pour crumbs into a large mixing bowl; add cinnamon and the sweetened condensed milk. Using a spoon or your hands, combine to form a stiff dough. Add remaining ingredients and knead them into the dough using your hands. Dump the mixture out onto a piece of Saran plastic wrap or aluminum foil. Firmly shape into a log about 3-4 inches in diameter. Roll up tightly and place in the freezer for about an hour before removing the wrap. To serve, cut into 1/2-inch slices with a sharp knife and arrange on a serving plate. Store covered in the refrigerator.
