Zubereitung von Fruitcake Slices
- Cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) softened butter and 1 ½ cups powdered sugar in a large bowl using an electric mixer on medium speed until light and fluffy.
- Beat in 1 large egg and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract until well combined.
- In a medium bowl, combine 1 cup chopped candied fruit, ½ cup chopped walnuts, and ¼ cup all-purpose flour. Mix well to coat the fruit and nuts.
- Gradually add 2 ¼ cups all-purpose flour to the wet ingredients, beating on low speed until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
- Gently fold in the fruit and nut mixture using a spatula until evenly distributed.
- Divide the dough in half and shape each half into a 2-inch diameter log, approximately 5 ½ inches long.
- Spread ½ cup shredded coconut evenly onto a sheet of waxed paper.
- Roll each log in the coconut, ensuring it's fully coated.
- Wrap each log individually in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or preferably overnight. Alternatively, freeze for up to 1 month.
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease two baking sheets.
- Using a sharp knife, cut each chilled log into ¼-inch thick slices.
- Arrange the slices 1 inch apart on the prepared baking sheets.
- Bake for 13-15 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the centers are set.
- Transfer the fruitcake slices to wire racks to cool completely before serving.
