” Cranberries, dates, and walnuts make the perfect combination for holiday gatherings. This is the first of many recipes given to me by my mother-in-law. She easily doubles this recipe and makes extra cakes that are ideal holiday gifts for teachers or neighbors.”

INGREDIENTS:

• 2 eggs
• 1 cup sugar
• 3/4 cup vegetable oil
• 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 tsp baking powder
• 1 tsp baking soda

INSTRUCTIONS:

1. Preheat oven to 350°F.
