  • 1 cup bite size pitted prune, chopped
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1/4 tsp baking soda

  • 2 tbsp butter
  • 1/4 tsp salt

  7. Sift flour, salt, nutmeg, cloves, and cinnamon.
  8. Add flour mixture alternately with buttermilk mixture to egg mixture.
  9. Fold in prunes.
  10. Pour batter into pan and bake about 1 hour or until a tooth-pick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  11. To prepare the frosting, combine sugar, baking soda, buttermilk, butter and salt in a medium saucepan. Bring to a boil.
  12. Remove from heat, stir in vanilla.
  13. Poke holes in cake with a fork or long toothpick and pour over cake while both are still warm.
