Vanilla Wafer Fruitcake Recipes

ICEBOX VANILLA WAFER FRUIT CAKE

Steps:

• 1. First, you must save the vanilla wafer box for this recipe. Pulverize the vanilla wafers to a powder consistency in a food processor. Drain the cherries well on a paper towel and then chop. Except for the condensed milk, mix all the other ingredients into the powdered vanilla wafers throughly..
• 2. You will need plastic gloves for the next method since it is a sticky method. Pour in the condensed milk and mix until completely mixed and wet. Place mixture back into the vanilla wafer box and beat down evenly into a square.
• 3. Allow the fruit cake to set about 4 days to a week. Tear off the vanilla wafer box and cut into small squares. It is rich, so be conservative. Serve. Leftovers should be refrigerated.

Steps:

• Cut pineapple and pecans; leave cherries as they are. Crush the vanilla wafers until fine and add the (thawed) coconut. Add the pineapple, pecans,and cherries to this; also add the chopped dates.
• Next, melt the butter and marshmallows, then pour over the fruit and vanilla wafer mixture. This will need to be in a large bowl. Mix with a large spoon at first, but then you will need to mix it good using your (clean) hands.
• After mixing and kneading well, pack it tight in a greased (or non-stick sprayed) bundt pan. It needs to be chilled in the refrigerator for a day, at least. This will keep for a long time. Store in refrigerator.
