Add a photoIt sounds terrible, but it is sooo good! My daddy loved this cake. It was a toss up between this cake and a carrot cake at Father's Day and 9 times out of 10, this one won out. This cake stays moist for days ya'll and the kids will love it too - just don't tell them what's in it. I hope ya'll enjoy making it for your family as I did for my daddy.

- March 14, 2010Sorry to be such a dolt, but when you say "cooked prunes" do you mean to stew them first and then reserve the juice for the frosting?
November 21, 2008I'm going to try this one too. I love prunes! Won't tell the kids, though.
