Phils Bourbon Christmas Cake Recipe


Phils Bourbon Christmas Cake Recipe
This came from one of my George Brown classmates in exchange for my Soy Awesome Cookies recipe. He noted that this cake should be thinly sliced when served. Makes 3 loaves, 14 slices per serving.

Really different Sarah...Thanks my friend!


Mmmmmmmm :) I would be one of those people who ADORE fruitcake, and with Jack in the mix.... YUM!
TY, JJB :)


Wow, interesting....sounds good! I'm gonna try it with SoCo instead of Jack. It would go well with the cinnamony-fruity thing, I think.
