Guest guest Posted October 1, 2002 Report Share Posted October 1, 2002 Sugar Plum Pudding Cake by ladyvelvet A recipe that was handed down to me over 25 years ago. It is called Sugar Plum Pudding Cake. It is absolutely delicious. I make this cake a tradition at Christmas. It is very moist and rich in flavor. Hope you enjoy it as our family does. Ingredients 3/4 c shortening or oil 11/2 c sugar 1 c buttermilk 21/2 t. baking powder 1 t. nutmeg 1 t. cinnamon 1 c chopped pecans 3 eggs replacers or regular 2 c flour 11/2 t. soda 1 t. salt 1 t. allspice 1 c prunes or dates chopped, raisins Cream shortening, gradually add sugar, then buttermilk, eggs. Now gradually add all dry ingredients until mixture is smooth. Turn mixer down and gradually add prunes, dates, or raisins. Blend well. You may use well greased and floured loaf pans or tube cake pans for this recipe. Pour cake mixture in pan and bake for about 40 minutes at 325 degrees or until toothpick comes out of cake clean. While cake is baking, mix topping for cake. You will need a medium saucepan. 1 c sugar 1 c buttermilk 1/2 c butter or margarine 1 t vanilla 1 T. white corn syrup Put ingredients in saucepan and cook on medium heat stirring constantly until mixture is almost at boiling stage. When cake is done baking, prick cake with fork so topping can penetrate into cake. Pour hot topping on cake. Cake will look as though it is white on top.
