Time 27m

Yield 1 cake, 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 (18 ounce) package spice cake mix (Duncan Hines)
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
1 cup buttermilk
1/3 cup applesauce (plain)
1/3 cup vegetable oil
3 large eggs
1 cup blackberry jam (Smuckers)
1 cup raisins
1 cup chopped walnuts
1/2 cup unsalted butter, 1 stick (NO substitutes or it will fail)
1 cup firmly packed brown sugar
1/4 cup evaporated milk (Pet)
2 cups powdered sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla

Steps:

  • CAKE:.
  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Prepare three 8" or two 9" round cake pans.
  • Mix the cake mix and cinnamon together.
  • Add the buttermilk, applesauce, vegetable oil, eggs, and jam.
  • Mix thoroughly.
  • Fold in the raisins and nuts.
  • Pour batter into pans.
  • Bake for 22 to 25 minutes or until they spring back when touched lightly in the middle.
  • Cool for 10 minutes in the pan; invert cakes onto wire cooling racks.
  • Set aside and prepare frosting.
  • FROSTING:.
  • Use the butter wrapper to grease the inside of a saucepan.
  • Over medium heat melt butter and brown sugar together; bring to a boil.
  • Stir and boil for 2 minutes exactly.
  • Stir in evaporated milk; bring to boil.
  • Remove from heat and add powdered sugar and vanilla.
  • Beat until smooth and creamy.
  • Not only do I double the recipe, but at the end I put it in a mixing bowl before it cools down and beat it with a mixer. When it starts cooling it will get thicker, so frost cake before it hardens.
  • I made seven of these yesterday, wrapped them in plastic wrap after they cooled, put them in cake boxes with a bow and a tag and they made WONDERFUL (and very appreciated) presents for family and friends.
  • Enjoy, and please let me know if you enjoy them as much as we do!

GEORGIA'S TENNESSEE JAM CAKE



Georgia's Tennessee Jam Cake image

This rich holiday dessert was invented by my grandmother and is a tradition in our house over Christmas. These ingredients were originally the authentic thing -- homemade jam, buttermilk out of the churn, and walnuts you gather and crack yourself. Now we use purchased items, but the cake is just as good. Frost with homemade caramel frosting, or your favorite cream cheese frosting.

JO'S JAM CAKE (#7)



Jo's Jam Cake (#7) image

This recipe comes from a 1968 recipe book titled,"Favorite Recipes From Church of GOD Ladies". Each of the recipes has the ladies' name and home town and I will include this with the recipe and if you know or are related to this person, I would really like to know. The recipes I post from this cookbook are ones I have tried and really like or are unusual due to ingredients or possibly due to the number of recipes with the same name but are different in some way. I hope you enjoy. I know some the recipes are really lacking in some or all areas, but I am posting them as they are in the cookbook
