Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 cup butter, softened
2 cups white sugar

½ cup buttermilk
1 teaspoon baking soda
3 ½ cups all-purpose flour
1 pound dates, pitted and chopped
1 pound orange slices candy, chopped
2 cups chopped pecans
1 ⅓ cups shredded coconut
1 cup orange juice
2 cups confectioners' sugar

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 250 degrees F (120 degrees C). Lightly grease and flour one 10 inch tube pan.
