I honestly would not have expected that a good cake could be made without sugar but then again, I’m probably thinking about the frosting that usually is loaded with sugar. This one looks interesting although I’d probably want to change out the prunes for something else. Maybe I could take a hint from the video in the previous post and just as they used post-it notes in place of butter, I could use erasers or some other office supplies in place of the prunes. (can you tell I’m not really thrilled with prunes? [grin])

Boil a cup of dates and a cup of prunes in the one cup of water for 3 minutes; add 1 stick of butter (melted) and a cup of raisins and let that cool.

While it’s cooling Mix a cup of plain flour, a teaspoon of baking soda, 1/4 teaspoon of salt, 2 eggs, a cup of chopped nuts, 1/4 teaspoon each of cinnamon and nutmeg and a teaspoon of vanilla.

Add that to the fruit mixture and stir until it’s blended. Pour it into a baking dish and bake at 350 degrees for 25 to 30 minutes

Every once in a while I like to take a “normal” recipe and try to see what changes can be made to it that will either improve it or just make it different. My wife sent me this video that I think does a great job of showing how somebody really did a major job of changing the basic spaghetti recipe. I can honestly say that I’ve never tried making it this way.
