Preheat oven to 300º

Sprinkle approximately ¼ cup of the flour over the candied fruit to keep it from sticking when adding to batter.

Drop by teaspoonful on parchment lined or lightly greased baking sheet.

Bake for 20 minutes until golden. Cool for a few minutes before removing to a cooling rack.

This was one of my Mom's favorites and we always had it in the house at Christmas time. She didn't bake fruitcake but always did these cookies.
