I've tried many rum fruitcake cookie recipes, but this one is by far the best. The cookies are moist and flavorful, and they have the perfect amount of rum. I highly recommend this recipe!

Wow, these rum fruitcake cookies are delightful! The flavors of rum, fruits and spices blend perfectly, and the texture is soft and chewy. I used a mix of dried cherries, cranberries and raisins, and they added a nice tartness to the cookies. Overall
