Christmas means fruitcake! And no, not the kind that's almost like a brick. Fruitcake that has real fruits, dried fruits. But this time, we decided to make some using tropical fruits! Coconut, papaya, mango, pineapple. And yes, cacao is a tropical fruit so chocolate chips count!
In another twist, these fruitcakes are bite-sized, not in loaves...
Immediately after taking the fruitcake "bites" out of the oven, I poked holes all over and brushed rum on top several times. The smell in the kitchen was just heavenly!
Here's a peek inside...
Yummy!
