1 c  Dates

      1 c  Cherries

      1 c  Walnuts

    2/3 c  Chocolate Chips

    1/4 ts Salt

  1 1/2 ts Baking Powder

      1 c  Sugar

  Whips eggs well.  Add flour, sugar, salt and baking powder to large bowl
  and mix well.  Mix in the goodies.  Lick bowl! Place in 8x3x4 cake pan. If
  you use pan, line it with wax paper. I use tin foil. It's much easier to
  wrap as a gift. Bake at 325 for 1 1/2 hours. Use a toothpick to see if
  done.  You should not get anything but chocolate. There should be a good
  crust and be brown. Make sure not too soft in the middle.
