BLACKBERRY JAM CAKE

This recipe is very moist and dense and reminds me of a good fruit cake. Even though the directions call for a tube pan, I usually use a 9 x 13 cake pan. And to my personal taste, the nuts can be omitted and never missed.

Tips:

  • To make the jam, use fresh, ripe blackberries. This will ensure the best flavor.
  • If you don't have a candy thermometer, you can test the jam by dropping a small amount onto a cold plate. If it wrinkles when you push it with your finger, it is ready.
  • When making the cake, be sure to cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy. This will help to create a tender crumb.
  • Do not overmix the cake batter. Overmixing can result in a tough, dry cake.
  • Bake the cake in a preheated oven. This will help to ensure that the cake bakes evenly.
  • Allow the cake to cool completely before frosting it. This will help to prevent the frosting from melting.
