Default OT Great fruitcake!

Yeah, yeah, I know the smarty pants out there will say there's no such
thing. Good. Keep thinking that -- there will be more left for me.

This year I decided to try Alton Brown's fruitcake recipe. (
http://www.foodnetwork.com/food/reci...6_8157,00.html
) I made a couple of very minor changes (made it wheatfree and eggless,
macerated the fruit in brandy instead of rum), and it turned out FABULOUS!
More cake-like (and less bread-like) than previous fruitcakes, but simply
superb flavor.

DH is busy scarfing it down. You'd think I'd been starving the poor boy, and
he's not usually a big cake or fruit eater. His only suggestion was to add
more nuts next time, and he's hinting that next time needs to be very, very
soon.
