Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C). Grease and flour a 11x9-inch pan.

  2. Blend sugar and canola oil together in a mixing bowl using an electric mixer. Add eggs, flour, prunes, allspice, baking soda, and salt, mix well. Add buttermilk, pecans, and vanilla extract and combine. Pour batter into the prepared pan.

  3. Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 45 minutes.

  4. While cake is baking, mix buttermilk, sugar, butter, and vanilla extract together in a saucepan over medium heat. Cook until it begins to thicken, about 5 minutes. Pour glaze over cake when it comes out of the oven.

  5. Let glazed cake cool completely, about 30 minutes. Cut into squares.
