Gingerbread Fruitcake Cookies
Two of my favorite things, gingerbread and fruitcake, meet in a truly great cookie. You’d never know this recipe starts with a mix. It's brimming with fruit, nuts and gingerbread flavor and topped with a delightful orange glaze. —Jamie Jones, Madison, Georgia

I made these without the nuts or the fruitcake, but added an extra 1/2 cup of raisins. They were absolutely delicious. You should not miss out on these cookie simply because you don't like fruitcake!

I made these for my mother-in-law who loves fruitcake. According to her they were great and wanted me to make her more. You must love fruitcake to like these because everyone in my house, including me thought they were terrible.
