Debbi,
Please find below the recipe about which we have all been talking:
MARY's JAM CAKE
by Mary Beaven
Mary Beaven reports that this cake is a favorite with her family at
Christmas. In fact, as Dr. Jernigan writes in his article, "Making Hay,"
in the March, 1993, issue of the Braille Monitor, in many places in the
South the jam cake was the rural equivalent of the Christmas fruit cake. It
is moist and unforgettably delicious.
Ingredients:
One-half cup butter
1 cup sugar
One-fourth cup brown sugar
4 eggs, separated
2 cups seedless blackberry jam
1 teaspoon vanilla
One-half cup buttermilk
2 cups all-purpose flour
One-half teaspoon baking soda
One-half teaspoon salt
One-half teaspoon nutmeg
1 -and one-half teaspoon cinnamon
1 cup raisins
1 cup pecans, broken
Method: Cream butter in electric mixer until soft. Gradually add sugar, egg
yolks, jam, and vanilla.
Sift together dry ingredients.
Beat egg whites until stiff peaks form.
Alternately beat buttermilk and dry ingredients into butter mixture.
Stir in raisins and nuts. Then gently fold in beaten egg whites.
Bake in 3 9-inch round cake pans, which have been greased and floured.
Bake at 325 degrees for 30 minutes. When layers are done, allow to cool
slightly on racks before removing from pans.
When cake layers are completely cool, frost with the following caramel
frosting and stack:
Caramel Frosting: In heavy medium saucepan, melt 1 stick butter or margarine
and add 1 cup brown sugar. Cook over low heat for 2 minutes.
Add one-fourth cup heavy cream and bring to boil, stirring constantly.
Remove from heat and cool. Add 1 and three-fourths to 2 cups powdered sugar
and 1 teaspoon vanilla. Beat with electric mixer until frosting is of
spreading consistency.
