Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 (14.4-ounce) box graham crackers
1 cup chopped pecans
1 (10-ounce) jar maraschino cherries, drained with juice reserved
1 cup raisins
1 cup firmly packed shredded sweetened coconut
1 1/2 cups mini marshmallows
1 (14-ounce) can sweetened condensed milk

Steps:

  • Lightly spray a 9x13-inch baking dish with nonstick cooking spray. Crush the graham crackers using a food processor or add them to a large ziptop bag and crush using a rolling pin. Coarsely chop the cherries.
  • Combine crushed graham crackers, pecans, cherries, raisins, coconut, marshmallows, and sweetened condensed milk in a large bowl and mix well. Add reserved cherry juice by the tablespoonful until the mixture comes together, but isn't too soft. I usually add between 2 and 3 tablespoons.
  • Turn out into the prepared dish and press flat with your hands. Cover and chill at least 6 hours, then cut into bars. Keep refrigerated.

My family doesn't really like the traditional fruitcake, but will eat this like crazy. The thing I like most about it is that it freezes really good. You can make it a month in advance, freeze, defrost and serve later. Cook time is actually chill time.
