Nancy's Holiday Apple Cake image

This is a wonderful fruit cake. It is my friend's secret family recipe, after I tasted it I begged and begged for the recipe. After a couple of years of having me beg, she finally relented and gave me this recipe. It is many years old so there were not packaged and chopped fruit available. It was a lot of work to make. I'm putting it here so I don't lose it.
