Ingredients: 200 gm California prunes , 250 gm butter, 250 gm sugar, 4 eggs, 250 gm flour, 3 gm baking powder, 1 lemon rind(grated) , 50 gm icing sugar.

Method: Soften and whisk the butter until it is creamy. Add sugar and whisk again for a few minutes. Add eggs one at a time beating well after each addition. Add chopped California prune. Mix sifted flour with baking powder and grated rinds of lemon into the mixture.

Line a cake tin with non-sticky greaseproof paper. Pour the mixture into the tin with care so that the tin is filled above two thirds of its height. Bake in a preheated oven at 180 C for 90 minutes and then leave it to cool in the tin for 10 minutes. Turn out the tin onto a wire rack to cool completely.

To decorate the California prune cake, dust icing sugar on top.
