All TM'ers,
I came across this cake recipe containing prunes. It is for real, and I know
some that have made it and really
liked it. If you want to try it, here it is:

1 1/2 cups sugar
Grease & flour 9x13 inch pan, set aside
3 large eggs
Mix all ingredients in order given & blend well
1 cup buttermilk
Pour into prepared pan
1 tsp vanilla
Bake for 35-45 minutes or til cake springs back
1 tsp allspice

1 tsp nutmeg
Remove from oven. Pour sauce over cake immediately
1 tsp cinnamon
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp. salt
2 cups flour
1 cup mashed prunes
1 cup chopped nuts - optional
The Sauce:
1 cup sugar
1/2 cup buttermilk
1/2 tsp baking soda
1 tsp light corn syrup or honey

Pour over cake as soon as it comes out of oven
Hopes this helps, Janice
