Christmas Bread
Instructions
Prep:20minCook:30min
Fruitcake is a traditional Christmas treat, but my family and friends prefer this slightly sweet bread. It's so pretty drizzled with vanilla icing and dotted with festive red and green candied fruit. I like to sprinkle extra fruit on top for added appeal. —Betty Jean McLaughlin, La Vista, Nebraska
