One word for this meal: tasty!
By Holly Owens
Ice box fruitcake is a nostalgic treat that reminds me of holiday gatherings at my grandmother’s house. This no-bake dessert is perfect for those who want to enjoy the rich flavors of fruitcake without the hassle of baking. Made with crushed vanilla wafers, this version is dense, crumbly, and delightfully chunky, making it a unique addition to any festive table. It’s a great recipe to prepare ahead of time, allowing you to focus on other holiday preparations.
This ice box fruitcake pairs beautifully with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream. For a festive touch, serve it alongside a warm mug of spiced cider or a glass of eggnog. It also complements a cheese platter, adding a sweet contrast to savory cheeses.
