Steps:
- Spray a 9x13 baking pan with cooking spray or line with parchment paper. Preheat the oven to 350º Fahrenheit.
- Place the prunes in a small saucepan and cover them with water. Bring to a boil and simmer for about 8 minutes or until they are soft and can be mashed with a fork.
- Drain the water, place the prunes on a plate and mash them. They do not have to be totally liquified. It's ok if there are little chunks.
- In a large bowl, mix together the oil, sugar and eggs.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg and allspice.
- Add the flour mixture alternately with the buttermilk, stirring just until combined.
- Fold in the pecans and the mashed prunes.
- Pour the cake batter into the prepared pan and bake for 25-30 minutes.
- While the cake is baking, prepare the buttermilk sauce.
- In a small saucepan, combine all of the sauce ingredients. Cook and stir for about 10 minutes over low heat. Keep the heat over low and keep the bubbles simmering on low. Stir just slightly every now and then but don't scrape the sides of the pan while simmering. The color will be bubbly a creamy butter color. It will start to thicken very slightly into a syrup.
- Use a table fork to poke a few holes in the top of the warm cake as soon as it comes out of the oven. Pour the warm glaze over the cake while it is still hot.

Steps:
- For the cake: Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F and butter a 9- by 13-inch baking pan.
- Place the prunes in a small saucepan. Cover them with water. Bring to a low boil and cook until soft and mashable, about 8 minutes.
- Drain the water and mash the prunes on a plate. It's okay to leave little chunks behind. Set the prunes aside and make the cake.
- Sift together the flour, baking soda, allspice, cinnamon and nutmeg. Mmmm... smells like the holidays.
- In a separate bowl, mix together the oil, sugar, vanilla and eggs.
- Combine the wet and dry ingredients and splash in the buttermilk. Stir until just combined. The mixture will be slightly lumpy.
- Now throw in the mashed prunes. And if your honey walks in as you're completing this step, shield the bowl with your body and stir quickly. What he doesn't know won't hurt him.
- Pour into the prepared baking pan and bake for 35 to 40 minutes. Grandma Iny was adamant: do not over bake the cake. You want it to be nice and moist.
- When the cake has about 5 minutes left to bake, make the icing: Combine the sugar, buttermilk, butter, corn syrup, baking soda and vanilla in a medium saucepan. Stir to combine. Bring to a slow boil over medium-high heat. No need to stir. Continue boiling until the icing turns a light caramel color, 5 to 7 minutes. Important: The icing should be the color of caramel, but not yet firm and sticky. It needs to be pourable.
- Pull the cake out of the oven. Try not to faint, as it smells absolutely divine.
- While the cake is very warm, pour the icing evenly over the top. Work fast, as it will quickly start to soak into the cake.
- Spread the coat evenly ... then please, do yourself a favor: lick the spatula. It'll make you smile. Serve immediately, or feel free to let the cake sit on the counter for a while before serving. It only gets better with age.
- Helpful hint: serve without revealing the fact that the cake contains prunes.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350. Grease a 9 x 13 pan. Cake: Place the prunes in a saucepan and cover with water. Bring to a slow boil over medium-high heat and continue to boil for approximately 8 minutes. Drain the water and smash the prunes with the bottom of a glass or plate. It's OK to have small chunks. Set the prunes aside. Cream together the oil and sugar. Add the remaining cake ingredients, including the prunes, and blend thoroughly. Pour in the prepared baking pan and bake for 30-35 minutes. Do not overbake as the cake is intended to be very moist. When the cake has about 5 minutes left to bake, make the icing. Icing: Place the icing ingredients in a saucepan and bring to a slow boil over medium-high heat. You do not need to stir. Continue to boil for 5 minutes. (Important: the icing should be the color of caramel but not thick or sticky. It needs to be pourable.) While the cake is still very warm, evenly pour the icing over the cake. You will need to work fast as the icing will seep into the cake.
PRUNE CAKE
This was the cake I asked my mother to bake me for my birthday each year. Most people would turn up their noses at any food with prunes in it, but oh are they wrong! This cake is wonderful. When my mother had to go to the nursing home, I found her recipe written in the back of an old cookbook. I was so excited and have been baking it ever since. In fact, then I started making it for her. By the way, I lost my Little Mama when she was 95 years old. She was a wonderful cook and passed it down to me.
