Wonderfully simple, old-fashioned recipe for a very moist and delicious cake. This was my grandmother's recipe, and four generations have enjoyed it over the years.

Categories     Dessert

Time 1h5m

Yield 1 13x9 cake

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 cup cooking oil
1 1/2 cups sugar
1 cup buttermilk
3 large eggs
2 cups self-rising flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon nutmeg
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 teaspoon salt
1 cup chopped nuts
1 cup cooked,chopped prune
1 cup sugar
1/2 cup buttermilk
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon baking soda

Steps:

  • Combine the dry ingredients in a large mixing bowl.
  • Add all the remaining ingredients and mix well.
  • Pour the batter into a greased and floured 13x9 pan and bake at 350 degrees for 50 minutes.
  • While the cake is baking, combine all the glaze ingredients in a small saucepan and cook slowly over medium heat until thickened slightly.
  • When the cake is done, remove it from the oven; prick holes over the surface of the hot cake with a fork, and pour the glaze over the top.
  • Cover and allow to cool slightly before serving (this allows the glaze to soak down into the cake).

I followed the recipe exactly, but my cake didn't turn out as moist as I would have liked. It was still tasty, but I'll have to experiment with different ingredients next time.
