Fresh Plum Cake

1/2 lb. softened sweet butter
1 cup sugar
4 eggs
2 cups flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
pinch of salt
20 Italian plums, pitted and halved

Preheat oven to 350 degrees

Cream butter and sugar, add beaten eggs,
flour, baking powder and salt.
Place batter in a greased oval or a 9x13
rectangular dish. Place all of the
halved plums all over the top of the
batter with the skin on top. The plums
will be very close together, because you
want to use all of them.
Bake at 350 degrees for 60 minutes.

You will absolutely love this wonderful
tasting cake. If Italian plums are out
of season, you can use fresh apples.
