Un-named Fruitcake

 Coffee & Chocolate Fruitcake_NEW

Source & History

We found this when we were going through Rhoda's treasury of recipes - as you can see, the recipe doesn't have a name. I said the recipe looked interesting so Rhoda made it for us to taste. The recipe has no eggs and no butter so according to the boss, we can call this a healthy fruitcake (no eggs, no butter & no sugar). Of course it does have the fat & sugar from the chocolate.
