This is a recipe given to me years ago by my Mother-in-law. A very sweet, dense cake my husband grew up with and to this day still requests.
Blend sugar, oil and eggs.
Add dry ingredients altering with the milk.
Add vanilla, nuts and prunes.
Bake in a 13x9x2" pan at 300 degrees for 45-60 minutes.
While hot and still in pan pour icing over the cake.
Mix all ingredients in saucepan and bring to a boil.
Remove from heat and pour over cake.
Use fork to pierce holes in cake to absorb icing.
