Fruit Cake 7-Layer Bars

To store the Fruit Cake 7-Layer Bars, place them in an airtight container at room temperature. They will stay fresh for up to 3-4 days. If you want to store them for a longer period, you can refrigerate them for up to a week. Just make sure to let them cool completely before storing to avoid condensation.
If you prefer to make the bars ahead of time, you can bake them and store them as described above. You can also freeze the bars for up to 3 months. To freeze, wrap the cooled bars tightly in plastic wrap and then place them in an airtight container or freezer bag. When you’re ready to enjoy, simply thaw at room temperature for a few hours before serving.

These bars pair wonderfully with a cup of hot coffee, tea, or even a glass of milk. The sweetness of the bars is balanced by the slight bitterness of coffee, making them the perfect afternoon snack.
For a festive touch, serve these bars on a decorative platter during the holidays or special occasions. You can also top them with a dusting of powdered sugar or drizzle with melted chocolate for an extra indulgent treat.
