Pet "No Baking" Fruitcake 1957
Pet Milk recipe and mopther-in-law
Made this every Holiday season. She made it the week after Thanksgiving to set and then her addition was to add rum to soak in. Good recipe and better that most baked Fruit Cakes. Will have to make it for this year.

Hey Hans!
Your grandmother's cheese wafers have been a favorite in my family for generations! Sometimes we place a whole pecan half onto each wafer before we bake them. Wonderful!
