Steps:
- For the buttermilk shortcakes: Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
- Chill 2 large mixing bowls, a pastry cutter, the flour and cubed butter in the freezer for 15 minutes before assembling the shortcakes.
- Add the flour to one of the chilled mixing bowls. Working quickly, cut the butter into the flour using the chilled pastry cutter (or your fingers); the goal here is pea-size balls of butter. In batches, add the buttermilk until the dough is cohesive yet still moist. (You may not need all of it.) Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and lightly press into a 1-inch-thick round. Using a 4-inch biscuit cutter or the business end of a dry measuring cup, cut out 8 biscuits.
- Preheat a cast iron skillet in the oven for 5 minutes.
- Swirl the oil in the bottom of the skillet and gently arrange the biscuits in the skillet, making sure they are all nestled up against each other tightly.
- Brush the tops with the melted butter and sprinkle with the sanding sugar. Bake until the tops are just slightly golden brown, about 15 minutes.
- For the plums and cherries: Heat a 12-inch nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the plums, cherries, granulated sugar, lemon zest and juice, ginger and cinnamon. Cook, stirring very gently as the fruit releases its juice, until the fruit is slightly soft, a few minutes. Take off the heat and add the butter. Gently stir until melted.
- For the ginger cardamom whipped cream: In the other cold bowl, mix together the cream, granulated sugar, vanilla, cardamom and ginger. Beat to medium peaks.
- For assembly: Split a warm shortcake with a fork. Place the bottom on a plate or shallow bowl and spoon on some of the warm plum and cherry mixture. Dollop on some whipped cream and sprinkle with some candied walnuts. Top with the top of the shortcake. Spoon on some more of the warm plum and cherry mixture, dollop on more whipped cream and sprinkle with more candied walnuts. Repeat with remaining ingredients to make 7 more.
PLUM CAKE
Italian plums are good to eat, but even better to bake with. They aren't quite as juicy or sweet as their American cousins, but they keep their shape well and their skin adds a gorgeous purple color to tarts and cakes. The brown sugar cake batter and sweet crumb topping are a perfect complement to the not-too-sweet fruit. It is great for breakfast with a cup of tea and/or with ice cream after dinner. This is a cake that also seems to get better the second day, if there is any left.

Steps:
- To make the cake: Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Grease an 8-inch springform pan with butter.
- In a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, cream together the butter and brown sugar, until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Add the eggs, one at a time, scraping down the bowl after each. Mix in the zest and vanilla. In a separate bowl whisk together the flour, baking powder and salt. Add the dry ingredients to the butter/sugar mixture and mix on low speed until just combined. Spread half of the batter into the prepared pan.
- Place half of the cut plums on the batter, cut-side up. Spread the remaining batter over the plums. Spread the batter into an even layer and top with remaining plums.
- To make the topping: In a bowl, mix together the flour, sugar, salt, cinnamon and melted butter. You may have to mix it with your hands to get all the butter incorporated.
- Spread the crumb topping over the plums evenly.
- Place the cake on two stacked cookie sheets, to prevent the bottom from getting too brown during the long baking time. Bake for about 1 hour 15 minutes or until a tester come out clean. Cool on a rack.
- Serve it slightly warm or at room temperature.

CHRISTMAS PLUM CAKE
This is an absolutely declicious, moist cake that smells and tastes like Christmas. My grandmother Bonnie had spent some time in California in the 40's and I believe that's where this recipe originated. This cake is perfect to bake a day ahead and enjoy as a breakfast item. Also it's perfect to separate the batter into 7 mini loaf pans and give away as gifts. Let me know what you think...it's one our family traditions which I hope becomes one of yours.

Steps:
- Before beginning this recipe, put your prunes in a pan and just cover with water. Let them simmer for a little while until mushy. Turn off pan and let them sit until a little cooler. Then chop them on a cutting board and get started on the recipe.
- First mix together oil, sugar, eggs, pecans and prunes (you might want to say plums -- people get a certain image when you say prune).
- Next, whisk together the soda and buttermilk in a separate bowl or measuring dish. Set that aside and let it get foamy.
- Next sift together the flour and spices. Mix the dry ingredients in with your prune mixture, just until moist. Then fold in the buttermilk mixture until mixed in well.
- Pour mixture into a 9X13 baking dish. OR you can use smaller tins -- I find one batch can fill 7 mini loaf pans. Bake 9X13 dish for one hour at 350 degrees. Small pans bake for 35 minutes at 350 degrees.
- Five minutes before your cakes come out of the oven, prepare the glaze: mix together buttermilk, sugar, butter and soda. Bring to a boil and cook for 1-2 minutes -- be sure you use a larger pan than you think you need, this mixture really expands! Pour the glaze over your hot cakes once they come out of the oven.
- Enjoy!

PLUM CAKE
This is a great cake for those who find the usual cakes too filling. This is great for entertaining as well as for the family. If this cake stays more than 24 hours, it should be kept refrigerated.

BERRY BUTTERMILK CAKE
Buttermilk makes this stir-together cake super tender, but you can use any milk you have in its place. Same goes for the fruit: Use your favorite frozen berries, or a combination, but frozen cherries, mango or peaches work as well. Just cut any big fruit pieces into bite-size pieces before folding into the batter. And if you do happen to have fresh summer fruit around, that'll work, too.

Steps:
- Heat oven to 350 degrees. Brush a 9-inch baking dish or pan (square or round is OK) with oil and line with parchment paper. In a medium bowl, whisk together 1/2 cup oil, buttermilk, eggs, vanilla and 1 cup sugar. In a separate medium bowl, whisk 1 1/2 cups flour, the baking powder, baking soda and salt to combine. Whisk wet ingredients into dry until just combined. (Some small lumps are fine.) Toss berries on a plate with remaining 1 tablespoon flour. Fold into batter and transfer to the prepared baking dish.
- Sprinkle evenly with remaining 2 tablespoons sugar. Bake until golden and a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean, 53 to 58 minutes. Let cool slightly before serving. Cake will keep, loosely wrapped at room temperature, for about 4 days.
