www.nancyskitchen.com/cakes/default.htm
4 c. flour
2 tsp. cinnamon
2 tsp. nutmeg
1/2 tsp. salt
2 c. raisins
5 eggs
1 c. butter
2 c. brown sugar
2 c. jam
1 c. buttermilk
1 tsp. soda, dissolved in milk
Sift flour, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt. Mix with raisins. Cream butter and add sugar. Add jam to this batter mixture. Add the flour mixture, alternating with buttermilk. When all flour and buttermilk have been added, add beaten eggs and soda dissolved in milk. Stir thoroughly. Bake at 350 degrees for 45 minutes to 1 hour.
Ice with following:
ICING
3 c. brown sugar
Butter the size of an egg - softened
1 c. water
1 c. raisins
1 c. dates
2 c. English walnuts
I would use a deep 9 x 13“ pan for this cake since it calls for 4 c. flour.
