This is an awesome recipe! It really is the easiest thing to make, and tastes great plain or with additional fruits or nuts or chocolate or whatever topping makes you happy. The exterior of the sponge is crispy when it first comes out, a perfect contrast to its marshmallowy inside. I made mine in bread pans (and just sprayed pam on the sides), and just layered tiny cutup pieces of fruits on top. Through the baking process, some of the fruit will sink, and the result is this stunningly beautiful fruitcake that's delightfully yummy. Thanks so much for this awesome recipe!
