Fruitcake Squares

Normally people who hate fruitcakes (should say dislike) like these.

6 tablespoons butter or margarine melted

4 cups crushed vanilla wafers

3/4 cup halved green candied cherries

3/4 cup halved red candied cherries

1/2 cup chopped candied pinapple

3/4 chopped dates

1 cup pecan halves

1 can (14 ounces) sweetened condensed milk

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Pour melted butter in a 15x10x1" baking pan.  Sprinkle evenly with wafer crumbs.  Arrange cherries, pineapple, dates and pecans evenly over the crumbs press down firmly.  Combine milk and vanilla pour over fruit.  Bake at 350 for 20-25 minutes.  Yield about 6 dozen.
