APRICOT ORANGE BUNDT CAKE
I love bundt cakes & this one has been a favorite of mine for over 20 years! *For the 1/3 cup of orange juice in the glaze, I like to use half OJ & half Triple-Sec, or something similar!

- In a large mixing bowl, on high speed, beat the sugar & butter 5 minutes or until light & fluffy.
- Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each, & scraping down the sides of the bowl.
- On low speed, add vanilla, dates, apricots, nuts & zest, mixing well.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, soda & salt.
- Into the original large mixing bowl, with the mixer on low speed, alternate beating, the flour in fourths & the buttermilk in thirds, into the batter, beginning & ending with flour, & mixing well.
- Pour the batter into the Bundt pan & bake 45-55 minutes or until a toothpick in the center comes out clean.
- Cool in the pan on a wire rack for 10 minutes before inverting cake onto a wire rack over a sheet of foil & remove the pan.
- Meantime, for the glaze, in a small saucepan, stir together all the glaze ingredients.
- Bring to a boil & cook for 3 minutes, stirring constantly, until the mixture thickens slightly.
- Poke holes in the top of the cake with a long, thick skewer at about 1" intervals.
