1 c Butter, sweet
1/4 c Sugar
3/4 c Sugar, brown, dark
2 lg Egg
1 t Vanilla extract
2 1/2 c Flour
2 ts Baking powder

Drain plums well, reserve syrup and chop plums.

Preheat the oven to 400 F. In a large mixing bowl, beat the butter
until creamy and light, then gradually add the sugars, beating until
creamy and smooth. Beat in the eggs, then the vanilla. Sift all dry
ingredients together; stir into the butter mixture, alternating with
1/2 cup of the reserved syrup, beginning and ending with dry

13" baking pan. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes, or until a toothpick
tests clean. Turn the cake out of the pan and cool on a wire rack.
Dust with confectioners' sugar.
