OH WOW, this sounds just like the Prune Cake my friend's mom sent to her while our families were stationed in Japan. It was so incrediably moist and yummie. Wish I could give you more then 5 on this one, can hardly wait to make this. Hopefully tomorrow or for the weekend. Thank you GF for the great post, I really appreciate this one a lot. God Bless
