People who think they don't like fruitcake have never had a good homemade fruitcake, rich and dark with lots of nuts and fruit.
These look delicious! My wife and I have been getting a Collins Street Bakery fruit cake for as long as I can remember but they have become so expensive that this year we won't be ordering one - wife says she can make a whole Christmas dinner for what they want for one of their fruit cakes! So I think we're going to try making these cookies instead to substitute for the fruit cake this time. Remember to always get your ingredients "well acquainted with one another" -- lol - hope you and yours have a very blessed Christmas!
When my mom was alive she bought me a Collins Street Bakery fruit cake every season. I loved it! I think these cookies will be a great substitute.
Easy cheat is buy a box of pumpkin bread mix. Add spices and all the fruits and nuts with the flour to keep them suspended in the cake as it bakes.
My mother started sending me a Collin Street Bakery fruitcake after Mrs. Baird's Bread quit making them. I asked not to have one this year as I'm trying to lose weight; however, I may reconsider, lol!
What a great idea, sounds like you might've done that before -lol- what and how much of the spices do you put in your loaf - I'm a "novice" at this. @@user-zp8mw4dz1n
These are so delicious. People that don’t like fruitcake, like these.🤭😋🤣🙂
My beloved mother’inlaw used to make the best fruitcake. There were no bitters or rum, just tiny diced red and green cherries and yellow raisins and candied pineapple (hard to find), and walnuts. It was like a very dense pound cake, and it was DELICIOUS. I remember it being very time consuming to cut up all the fruits, and she would be very frugal when and for whom she would serve it.
Just received my cookbook!!! I only discovered Ms.MeMe this month and I'm hooked. Love her❤❤
Hope you enjoy it!🙂
I make cookies every Christmas using the typical Toll House cookie recipe, however, instead of chocolate chips I use white chocolate, I then add dried cranberries, chopped pecans or walnuts (or a combo of the 2 nuts) and some orange zest. Oh my goodness they’re great and the whole family loves them! You can also make oatmeal cookies and add white chocolate chips, nuts, dried cranberries, and orange zest! Both kinds are delicious!
I literally cheered when I saw that there was a new video from MeMe and KayKay today! It made me so happy! And the cookies look delicious! And I love to repeat with you "One stick a butta', 3 hundred and 50 degrees, and bottom rack"!!! I love you two! You give me so much joy! 😊❤
Thank you so much for joining me in the kitchen!
My mom made these cookies every Christmas. This brought back happy memories. I love this recipe.
We made candied pineapple for years, it’s so good! What most people find objectionable in fruitcake is the candied citron, even if they can’t identify it, so we don’t put it in. Dried cherries instead of candied make it really tasty.
You are just about the cutest thing ever!
Thank you!
My grandparents made a 25 lb. fruit cake back in the 70's. They broke a spoon trying to mix it all up. I thought it was the nastiest thing I had ever put in my mouth.
Many years later, I had fruit cake cookies, and I thought they were the greatest thing since sliced bread.
🤭🤣😋🙂❤️Sometimes our tastes do change, don’t they?

Takes me back to the 60's when my aunt made these along with Divinity. It truly made such great treats to snack on! Thanks Meme
You are so welcome!
MeMe Is the sweetest lady I've ever seen on CZcams and if I could give her 5-Thumbs Up on her videos, I would! What a sweet spirit, and I love that she loves the Lord! I will watch her as often as she will post, and her recipes are incredible! YOU GO GIRL, and may God bless and keep you!!!! AZ Food Critic
Wow, thank you!👏🏻👏🏻❤️🙏🏻
One of my grandmothers used to make a fruitcake every Christmas using graham cracker crumbs, butter, marshmallow cream (I think), and candied fruits and pecans. She would use the graham cracker box to shape it and it was refrigerated. I lost her recipe and haven't been able to replicate it. But I have fond memories of gladly accepting a slice whenever I was at her house. It was terribly sweet ... just the way I like it. I think I may have inherited my sweer tooth from her 😊
🙂
They look delicious 😋 just like all your recipes. Thank you for such a good idea for Christmas cookies
We use cloves and allspice in addition to the nutmeg
I love fruitcake! These look delicious and I am going to try to make these! Thanks Meme!
Looks delicious! My Mama made those and she called them Lizzies. Sweet memories of her at this time of year. Merry Christmas Meme and KK!

Hi MeMe and KayKay! I always enjoy your videos and these cookie look terrific! Some years I make fruitcakes, but not everyone eats it, so this is something nice to put out on the table along with other goodies that will satisfy the fruitcake lovers. Sending warmest wishes from Michigan for a beautiful, blessed and Merry Christmas to you and your family!

When I was a children there was a store named Rich’s and they had fruitcake cookies and they were the best and my favorite.
These cookie look so good.
I made the Pumpkin Bread you made in a recent video, and it was a hit at our home.
I have two loafs as gifts and we had one for ourselves.
Will definitely be baking more Pumpkin Bread.
That is awesome!
🤍they look so pretty and tasty!! I love fruit cake so I'm sure the cookies are delicious also !!

Dear Ms MeMe, it’s a real delight to watch you share your recipes with us - Ann, Australia
Thank you so much!
Yeah!!! Just ordered your cookbook!
Hope you like it!
Absolutely delicious happy holidays Mrs Diane
Merry Christmas to you!!!
This looks like the fruitcake cookies my mom made for years. Recipe probably goes back 70 years or so. The main difference is my mom's recipe called for a bit of whiskey in the batter instead of vanilla. My son-in-law hated fruitcake, but ate TONS of these cookies. They're awesome!
😋🙂
You are right about that meme I don’t like fruit cake but maybe cookies are different .
Real fruit cakes get a bad rap. One year on Christmas Eve I had all my Family over and made a real homemade fruit cake. Not only was everyone impressed but they loved the cake. Those cookies look devine. Kay Kay, cook,,,, you'll love it.
🤭😋🙂❤️Some of my family loves them….and some don’t.🤭🤣
My Mom used to make a cookie like this. They were soo good. Merry Christmas everyone.
Merry Christmas!
MeMe, those cookies look so festive and delicious. I think the nutmeg will add a great flavor. I must try these and thanks for sharing.
I love everything in those yummy cookies! I'm gonna make these yummy
Hope you enjoy🙂
Oh my glory...those looks so tasty. I love fruitcake so I'm certain I'll enjoy these. Um Um good!
They’re so good!!😋🙂
I've made these before and gotten rave reviews. This year I waited too long and can't find the candied fruit anywhere 😢 Enjoy those delicious cookies 😍
My mom made those every Christmas. The only problem was they never lasted till Christmas. There were 5 of us kids so goodies never lasted very long around us kids. Eventually to make them last longer My mom would bake them and store in a round cookie tin and hide them from us kids until around Christmas. We always knew when she made them, the house smelled heavenly when we would get home from school.
I am eighty-five and my aunt made these every year! Everyone loved them and her church friends looked forward to them.
😋🙂
I love these when made with cherries and pineapple. They are a favorite of mine.
That sounds delicious!
My husband has been wanting me to make these. His grandmother used to make them. But we don’t have her recipe. I just made the batter and it’s chilling. He can’t wait to try them!
Hope you enjoy🙂😋
I always enjoy your videos.
I appreciate that!🙂
My grandma's recipe, handed down in her handwriting,. Love them
Wonderful!😋🙂
We call it “Breaking Bread” from house to house. Those look delicious! I love fruit cake, so I know I’ll love these!! ♥️
Those look amazing 💖 and KK has it figured out for sure!!! 😉
🙂
Me Me, I want to wish you a very Happy New Year. I really enjoy your recipes. I made the tomato pie and the veggie soup. Looking forward to more of your wonderful recipes in 2024.😊😊
Happy new year!!
Looks good
I’m going to make those! I have to tell you I’ve just finished watching all of your videos and has anyone ever told you you look like Judy Garland? I’ve showed you to several people and asked them does she look like anyone, and they say yes but not sure who and when I tell them they say omg yes she does! Keep cooking and shine for Jesus!
🤣🤣I’ve been told that many times. Thanks for watching!!🙂
I can't understand how fruit cake got it's bad rep. I love it! These look amazing! I'll have to give them a try!
Kay Kay, you're a hoot! ❤ Say the blessing 😂
🤣🙂🙏🏻
Merry Christmas 🎄
These will be good and my kids would gobble them up, no doubt🎉
Thank you for the recipe meme. "Shine for Jesus " 😊
You're welcome 😊
I've gotta try these!
They are so good!!😋🙂
I remember a similar eggnog cookie with the candied fruits as decorations.
I just saw your wonderful recipe. Loved your video. I can't wait to try these cookies. My husband is a cookie thief. He likes fruitcake so this will be extra special. About how many do they make? I need your cookbook. Merry Christmas everyone.
Between 6-7 doz. in one batch. He will love these.😋🙂
I love fruitcakes and the cookies 😊
😋🙂
Great job as usual. Merry Christmas 🎅 🎄
Meme, I love fruitcake, so i just may try your recipe. They look great. Have you ever frozen any, curious to how they hold up? Thanks for sharing. I love your channel and I love the shine for Jesus.
I have not, but I’m thinking you should be able to.🙂
I wonder if the folks at Miele would be interested in sponsoring you, they are known for making terrific ovens and stoves! The reason I thought of them is not only because they’re a nice brand and you deserve the best, Meme, but because I recall they sponsored this little PBS Kids cooking show called Twice as Good and it was these two little girls cooking simple recipes and when they needed a grownup to help, their designated grownup was their grandmother. I used to watch this show with my son when he was very little. But anyway, I think you’d be a great brand ambassador for them so do look into a brand sponsorship replacement for that wonky stove! You really do deserve a great quality stove/oven/cooktop if anybody ever did!!! I just shared your dressing video with a friend online from the UK who was disappointed in some pre made stuffing he bought in the UK… I explained southern US dressing to him and sent your video and he was so intrigued he’s going to try to make some! Isn’t that neat?! Thank you for reminding me of all the love from my own dear departed Mema who taught me some of these same dishes.
Great!!😋🙂❤️
My Mom used to make these! They were SO GOOD! People are so funny about fruitcake, so she didn't give them to people; only had them for us and for family gatherings. I loved them. But my brother hated anything fruitcake - and LIED and told her he liked them too. I found out after she passed away. She really only made them because she thought everyone (especially him) liked them, and all the time he couldn't stand them. I really scolded him, although I had suspected it all along. Just broke my heart for her! They are very expensive to make, and she didn't want to make them if everyone didn't like them. Well folks, THEY ARE VERY GOOD, trust me! They are very pretty and festive, too.
Some of my family likes them…some don’t.🤭😋🙂❤️
@@memesrecipessc haha! That first emoji!!!
This Fruitcake Cookies recipe looks so delicious 😋Ms. Diane.
Thank you 😋
Hey Meme, just wanted you to know I made the wild rice casserole and it came out great!! I just finished it up yesterday ( got about 8 servings) 👍😋
Sounds great!🙂
I’d eat these! I love fruit cake, after years of finally trying it! People always made jokes about how awful it was so I never tried till I was 40!
Watching from Delaware.
I would love to see you with your family!
My mother and I made this recipe today! For fun, I made a glaze out of milk, powdered sugar and orange flavoring and brushed it on them lightly. It was a hit at our house! ❤
Sounds great!😋🙂
Now these look knee slappin' good 🎉🎉🎉 🎄
They are!
Cookies look real good I'm gonna try the recipe
😊
Hope you enjoy😋🙂
Yummy a good way to enjoy the great fruit cake tastes💛💚🙏Oregon
Yes it is!
MeMe, perhaps you've explained this before, but what difference does it make using the lower rack instead of the middle? I have always used the middle rack thinking that was the norm. Thank you for your guidance here, I love your videos❣️
No explanation. That’s just the way I’ve always done it.🙂
That works for me then😉
i love nutmeg too especially in pumpkin and apple pie
I love the smell as much as the taste... it is delightful!!
@@memesrecipessc i forgot ,too
Those cooies look so delicious! Would go nicely with a cup of coffee
Oh yes!
I took these to our Concert Series event at Church last night for the reception afterwards. I'm told they were a huge hit. I wouldn't know firsthand, because by the time I got out to the courtyard they were gone! 😳😀
🤣😋🙂👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
