Time to Think about Fruitcake

I should start baking my fruitcakes soon.
My coffee cans are ready. I like using them because they make a cute, round cake. I fill the cans up about 1/2 way with batter, maybe just a little bit less than half. They'll be about 4-6 inches high when they're done.

Here's the recipe for my Best Fruitcake
Even people who hate fruitcake will love this one.
I posted it here back in 2006. It was my mother's and grandma's recipe. Grandma got the recipe from Mrs. Suits. Mr. Suits was Chauncey Guy Suits, who was the director of research at General Electric in Schenectady from 1945 to 1965.
Here's his New York Times obituary:
C. G. Suits, 86, Electrical Inventor Who Devised Synthetic Diamonds
