Steps:
- 1. CAKE: Beat eggs; add sugar and oil and mix well. Sift flour, salt, & soda and add to egg mixture. Add fruit cocktail with syrup. Mix with electric mixer until fruit is well mixed.
- 2. Pour into greased and floured tube pan. Bake for 45-50 minutes at 325 degrees. Cool 10 minutes in pan. Remove, and frost while still warm with this topping:
- 3. TOPPING: boil milk, sugar, and butter for about 5 minutes. Add nuts and vanilla. Pour over cake while still warm.
- 4. We like assembling this cake in a large glass bowl. The topping will run down the sides of the cake and collect underneath, where it can be spooned over each slice. If you use a cake plate, let the topping cool somewhat first or it will run all over your cake plate and even drip off.
