Steps:
- Make the boxed cake mix according to the directions on the back, pour batter in a 9x13 inch pan and bake according to box instructions.
- When baked, remove from the oven and let it cool completely.
- Once it is cool, use the handle of a wooden spoon to poke rows and rows of holes in the cake.
- Add the thawed strawberries with syrup into a food processor or blender. Pulse until it is a slushy consistency.
- Pour the strawberry puree mixture over the cake and spread it out evenly. Let it soak inches.

- Place the fresh strawberry halves on top of the cake frosting. Sprinkle with the optional chopped pecans.

REFRIGERATOR FRUITCAKE
This is a recipe that my mom made every Christmas. It's a great alternative to baked fruit cakes and stays moist. Never dry. Tastes very much like the Claxton's fruitcakes that you can buy in the grocery store. I wanted to post this to save and found it as a newspaper clipping in my grandmother's recipe box. My grandmother had pinned it to a card with her cost estimate to make. I don't know how old the recipe is but given that a 1 pd of pecans was listed as 1.05, I assume it's pretty old! Total cost for cake was listed as $3.04. Hope you enjoy! It's been a holiday favorite in our family for years!
