2 cups persimmon pulp

2 cups sugar

1 Tbsp shortening

2 eggs

2 cups dried peaches-chopped fine

2 cups raisins

1 cup chopped walnuts

2 cups flour

2 Tsp baking powder

1 Tsp baking soda

1 Tsp salt

1 Tsp cinnamon

Directions


Cream shortening and sugar until light and fluffy.

Add in all remaining ingredients and mix well.

Pour into a buttered and floured deep,round cake pan or bundt pan.

This is totally different tasting than your usual fruit cake.

Wrapping the cake in cheesecloth and soaking in Brandy is still permissable with this cake.
