Friendship Prune Cake

1/2 c Friendship starter
1/2 c Shortening
1 1/2 c Sugar
2 lg Eggs
2 c All-purpose flour
1 1/2 ts Baking soda
1 ts Cinnamon
1/2 ts Salt
1 c Buttermilk
1 c Prunes cook-drain-chop
1/2 c Walnuts; chopped

Be sure the starter is warm and very active. Cream the shortening and sugar, add eggs one at a time, beating well. Add starter and buttermilk ( be nice and gentle with the starter). Sift and add dry ingredients, prunes and nuts. Bake at 350 for abut 40 minutes in a well greased and floured cake tin (pan) about 9 x 13.

NOTE: orange cream cheese icing is good on this. Use Dates instead of prunes. Can make 2 1/2 dosen cupcakes instead of cake but bake them only about 25 minutes
