Number Of Ingredients 18

Cake:
1 c. vegetable oil
1.5 c. sugar
3 eggs
2 c. flour
1/2 c. buttermilk
1 tsp. salt
1 tsp. baking soda
1 tsp. vanilla
1 tsp. cinnamon
1 tsp. nutmeg
1 tsp. cake spice
1 c. mashed prunes
Icing:
1/2 stick butter or margarine
1/2 c. sugar
1/4 tsp. baking soda
1/4 c. buttermilk

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.
