Originally a Brazilian recipe called Bolo Noite de Natal, but very similar to the traditional American one. I gave it a few healthy tweaks (believe it or not!) and, of course, you can add the kinds & amounts of fruits & nuts you like best. Less butter, sugar, eggs, etc can also be used-depending on your taste, dietary needs & opinion.This is not a last minute type of dessert to make. It's a fruitcake which requires a bit of time & loving dedication to make, but which just may become one of your favorite Christmas traditions for years to come!
