Orange Slice Cake

  • 1 cup butter (softened)
  • 2 cups white sugar
  • 4 eggs
  • 1/2 cup buttermilk
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 3 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 lb Sunnyland Dates (pitted and chopped)
  • 1 lb orange (slices candy, chopped)
  • 2 cups Sunnyland Small Pecan Pieces
  • 1 1/3 cups shredded coconut
  • 1 cup orange juice
  • 2 cups confectioners sugar

Directions:

  1. Cream shortening and sugar. Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each.
  2. Preheat oven to 250 degrees F (120 degrees C). Lightly grease and flour one 10 inch tube pan.
  3. In a mixing bowl, cream margarine and granulated sugar until smooth. Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Dissolve baking soda in buttermilk and add to the creamed mixture.
  4. Place flour in a large bowl and add dates, orange slices, and nuts. Stir to coat each piece. Add flour mixture and coconut to creamed mixture. This makes a very stiff dough, so it will be necessary to stir with a wooden spoon.
  5. Pour batter into the tube pan. Bake for 2 1/2 to 3 hours. As soon as cake comes from oven, combine the orange juice and confectioners sugar and pour over hot cake. Let stand in pan overnight.
