Totally agree
Agree!!!
Amen!
It looks like the cake my mother-in-law made every Christmas. She passed away a few years ago. I can't wait to surprise my husband with this. She never wrote her recipes down, just a spoon of this and a pinch of that. Thank you so much Ms. Phyllis.

Phyllis you should make a recipe book of the stuff you make. I'm sure we would all buy them from you.
I do agree with that!
Many people are wanting that, especially now that she's gone. ♥️
My birthday is December 11th and every year my dear Mother (God Rest her soul) would make a jam cake as my birthday cake and the leftovers would be part of Christmas baking. This video takes me back so many years. Thank you son for leaving it posted.
I thank the Lord for your kindness I have learned so much from you.I
appreciate all you
receipes they are so good.you do a good job explaining everything. thank you

This summer I got 30 pound flats of raspberries and blackberries. I've already made them into jam and canned most of the berries, the rest crushed in the freezer. if anyone can only find jam with seeds heat the jam up and push it through a fine sieve and the seeds will easily separate. beautiful cake, I love your recipes
My mother made a variation of this recipe. It was in the Lubbock newspaper, 1950. So that's how old this recipe is. My recipe makes a 4 layer cake. The "dressing/frosting/glaze" is like none other I have ever seen. Dressed between the layers and on top and let drizzle down the sides.
My "icing"
2 c granulated sugar
1 cup butter
1 cup heavy cream
2 c chopped pecans
2 small jars Maraschino cherries, drained and sliced. (discard the cherry juice)
Boil sugar, butter and cream until thick. Add the nuts and cherries and cook 5 min longer. Beat by hand until cool and dress cooled cake layers.
Oh wow, thank you!
I just started following you. My grandmother and mother made this cake when I was a very young girl. I have tried to find the recipe for many years. Thank you so much for posting this. I love that you make so many "from scratch " recipes. The tried and true ones.
My step mom use to make this cake at the holidays and I just loved it! The only difference was she did it in round layers and used coconut pecan frosting that goes on like german chocolate cakes. It was wonderful. After she died the recipe was lost. So glad you did this one, thanks!
My Great-grandmother's sister Lucile made this cake every year in Meridian, Mississippi. She also made the Coconut Pecan filing/icing.
FILLING:
1 1/2 Cup "sweet" Milk (3%)
3 Eggs, beaten together
1/2 Cup Sugar
1 1/2 Tablespoon Flour
Cook until thick then add:
1 Cup each of Pecan Nuts, Raisins, Coconut, and last a pinch of Salt.
I think the Joy Of Cooking is the best cookbook ever made and I have had hundreds of cookbooks. I always go back to it.
My grandmother gave me this recipe she would always say if you have 4 people in a room baking the cake will never taste the same each person who baked will have a different taste because each person has there own unique touch
This showed up on my feed today, 1/16/21. Miss Phyllis. RIP.
I was so happy to find this video! My grandmother used to make this cake every Christmas. We all looked forward to it very much. Grandma would make a big cake for after the meal and a little loaf size cake for every family to take home. Sadly she passed in 2013, but I have loads of wonderful memories. Thank you for reminding me of one today.
i appreciate you, Phyllis.
you do inspire ! --- the icing
is my favorite, tasted like 1954
cake from my depression era
grandmother of 6 sons,&
1 daughter, named " CLYDE"☺💡
.... SHe ran a " boarding house"🏠
all by herself, from 1921 to after
1965. ---- thanks for the sweet
memories, food recalls treasured
moments. ☘
Thank you Phyllis.. I am truly a dedicated fan of yours. I think we, and most if not all your fans are scratch bakers. I tuly love your explanation of all your videos.
Phyllis, I almost fell off my chair when I saw you post this recipe. I have been making Raspberry Jam Cake since 1970. It is one of my oldest and best cake recipes and almost the same as yours except I bake it in a tube pan and glaze it as well. I wish I was able to post a photo of it. And, by the way, I too have my old worn Betty Crocker cookbook from 1971. You are a 5 star chef in my book. Thanks for all your great recipes.
In the 60's, I was able to get a stack of small cookbooks and household tips for free from our gas and electric company. I enjoyed those for many years. They covered the full spectrum of dishes for all meals. The blackberry cake looks wonderful!
I just love your cooking tutorials. I also have used Betty Crocker's Cookbook since 1980 . She has recipes that use staples that most cooks keep on hand. I didn't have a mother around to teach me to cook so Betty Crocker was my "go to" for even the most basic cooking instructions. I found your channel a few weeks ago and I must say that you are now my "go to" for recipes. I love that you do things the old school way! Thank you so much for what you are doing.
One thing I like about Phyllis' cooking is how she explains why you do certain things like mixing sugar with cocoa and mixing flour with the nuts, just so many things like that in case you didn't know. I for one will sometimes get in a hurry and leave out a step but she explains everything so you will do it right the first time. She waa a good teacher.
I can not wait to make this! All your cakes and desserts come out wonderful, thank you so much for sharing them!
Miss Phyllis, I am addicted to watching you, could you please make an old fashioned blackberry clobber, I know it would be amazing coming from you. Thanks for all your recipes😀
I love your old recipes! So many get lost and forgotten! But I am a recipe collector! And this one sounds amazing! Plus the Betty Crocker cookbooks are the best to start out with! Especially the old ones! I collect cookbooks and have Betty Crocker was my first! And I've added to that shelf ever sense! I try to find the old originals in mint condition to give as gifts. I wouldn't part with mine. I've had it for 50 years exactly! I do love all the research you do!
This cake looks sooo good. I'm also interested in recipes made from scratch, that is why I love your recipes for everything you make, they are always from scratch. The older the recipe is the better they are, the better they taste, that of course is my opinion. Thank you very much for sharing your lovely recipes, I haven't made one yet that I didn't like. :)
Can’t wait to try this!
Made this cake yesterday and it was very moist and delicious. Thank you, Phyllis.
My great-grandmother made this, taught my mother, and my mother taught me. She used jam with seeds and a cooked caramel frosting.
I love your videos!
I love your site and view it daily! God bless you and Mr. Bucky!
This looks yummy! I'm going to try and make it this weekend. I completely agree with you about the Betty Crocker cookbook. I have often recommended it to new cooks.
My favorite cake. An old recipe that I had misplaced. So happy to find that you had it. I use to make this holidays. Thank you!!! ❤️❤️❤️
Blackberries are my favorite berry. This cake looks yummy
Phyllis thank you for the recipe. Will be making the cake as soon as my Black Walnuts arrive and will let you know how it turns out.
This recipe sounds wonderful and I can’t wait to bake one. Phyliss your videos are great and you are great in them, I thank you.
Luv that Phyllis didnt have old lady hair with the short permed style some women get once their hair is gray. Her long hair is so lovely
Lord I love her...so easy to follow her directions..Rosanne
Thank you so much! You're such a keepsake! I am going to make this for the first day of autumn.
What a fabulous old recipe!💜
You my friend, are a treasure. I live a long way away in Australia and i am interested in old style recipes from here and abroad. What i am learning from you is not just new (old) recipes, but technique, The part that most cookbooks scimp over. What does it mean to "beat eggs with sugar". or "alternately mix "buttermilk and flour" I come to your videos for the answers. You really should put out a cookbook with your recipes. Doesnt have to be fancy, just a companion to your fantastic videos. GOD BLESS YOU.
Hello Phyllis. I wanted to thank you for the recipe. I followed you step by step. my cake turned out perfect the icing was delicious. the cooking time was spot-on. I took this cake and let true Southerners one actually from the suppose it origin of this cake in Stanton Kentucky. His grandmother used to make this cake all the time. I asked him to rate it on a scale from 1 to 10, and this being my first time he gave it a nine. I omitted nuts as requested. His suggestion was that if I put nuts in it it would have been a 10 out of 10. out of all the videos that I watched on true Southern Kentucky black berry Jam cake yours hands down was the best. Thank you so much happy cooking
Thank for sharing your recipes...you bake and cook like my mother did...we are from Virginia as well...well except me...I was born in Philadelphia...I've been watching alot of your videos and you share alot of the old recipes such as spoon bread and stewed tomatoes...although I've never cared for them when I was little I would just add a little more sugar on my spoon bread with the melted butter and it was delicious...lol...well anyway your cooking brings back alot of memories of my own mother's cooking....thanks...oh my family is from portsmouth va...near high st.😊
I want to make this & also want to send the recipe to my daughter in Tenn. as she loves to bake & is a very good little homemaker! This just looked so good! ty
My husbands gma made this cake and now shes gone no one has the recipe. I'm making this for him to give him a treat,and a great memory.
Thank u hon. You are precious to us all. =:0)
Thank you Phyllis for another mouth watering recipe. You are so thorough with your instructions which makes it so easy to replicate. Your chanel is my favorite! I just love you and Mr Bucky!
I was so sleepy but stayed alert to see how this would turn out. Looks good and I hope to make it soon. I notice a lot of "old school" recipes call for evaporated milk, which I love. Thanks for posting this along with the measurements. And by the way I love your character. I think I'll watch another one of your videos :)
Oh ....that looks lovely Phyllis !!
My dad loves jam cake this sounds wonderful can't wait to try this 🙌
I am following u step by step. Been a long time since I made this cake! Years! Thank u!
My mom gave me the Better Homes & Garden Cookbook when I married at 19, and between it and my Mom's recipes, I learned to cook pretty well. I gave new versions to my kids when they left home, too. Your jam cake looks amazing - I've never heard of it before, but it reminds me a little of a plum cake an old friend used to make that was sort of like pound cake, but she added a jar of baby food pureed plums to the batter! May sound weird, but that plum cake was killer good.
I remember the cake from the 1960's where you added a jar of baby food prunes and spices.
I want to try this cake, sounds n looks great, and God bless you and Mr Bucky,in cake heaven
Thank you, dear Ms. Phyllis
Another 2 thumbs up my friend! Going to make this for Labor Day picnic!
I love your recipes and you are so good at telling us step by step on how you do things and amounts and sizes. of pans so I wanted to let you know I appreciate that it helps to have a person teach you and feel at ease to know when they try a recipe it will feel less stressed out because your instructions are to the point . Have a Blessed Day.
I made the Jam Cake today-I didn’t put the icing on the cake it was just too sweet-cake is delicious -thank you so much
looks delicious
I really like the way Phyllis wore her hair...Youthful pony
Blackberry jam cake !!!!delish
Have to say I tried her pineapple cream cheese cake icing not her scratch cake, I used a mix to take a short cut but it is delicious. I hope she knows how people still love her videos.
That looks delicious!
I love your channel. Thank you. This cake looks scrumptious.
I agree with you on buying cookbooks made by groups who are sharing their recipes. Some of my best recipes have been acquired that way I have had my Betty Crocker cookbook since 1971! Still use it. I have also found some good recipes with Better Homes And Gardens
I really enjoy watching your cooking videos. I have learned so much from you. I did not know about mixing the nuts with flour. This will solve a big problem for me in the kitchen. Thank you so much for making these very helpful videos.
I’ll have to try this!
I've made this recipe of Phyllis's but was out of berry jam so I substituted bananas instead and the cake was delicious and so moist.
This cake looks amazing. I must try it..❤
I agree about the Betty Crocker cookbook. Another great cookbook, especially for beginners is the Better Homes & Gardens cookbook. It has so many basic recipes and they are super easy. I love community cookbooks but just like you said, some recipes are missing details. I submitted a pumpkin chocolate cheesecake recipe in the local community cookbook and I forgot to list the sugar!!
Great old recipe.⭐️👍 Icing too sweet.⭐️
My grandma and mom made this as a layer cake with german frosting. We call it Amalgamation Cake.
madge
Oh that sounds yummy to....we love German frosting.
Wow, I’m going to google Amalgamation cake! I’ve heard of jam cake, but it seems like it had starter in it and in the old days they would wrap it up and let it sit in a dark area to absorb the flavors after baked.
@@janicescott7338 It's very similar to Friendship Bread.
@@atomiclisa I’m looking it up!
Man oh man oh man, how good does that look!?!!!
I know this is an old video but I enjoyed it very much and you are absolutely right in what you say about those charity cookbooks, they really vary greatly in quality, more about fundraising I suppose than about cooking.
It has been years since I have had blackberry cake. My family didn't use jam but rather fresh blackberries. I will eat anything that has blackberry in it! I will have to try this. My grandmother never really used a recipe. You'd ask her how she made something and she'd say "Will now honey I just used some of (insert ingredient) and a little bit of...). She died without us ever getting anything on paper. Except her Italian Cream Cake recipe. That's the only thing she ever used a recipe for. Miss my granny!
looks yummy!
Great cake!!!!!!! I'm sure glad I don't live in your house or I would weigh 600lbs!!! There is many things that I can't eat because of over indulging in my early years, but I would go crazy with all your cooking. Thanks for sharing,even I can't make or eat this cake.
I wish you would put all your recipes in a book im sure you would sell them all I would buy 2 for my sister and myself!!
My Mom had the same Betty Crocker cookbook your sister had. I got the one that you have but didn't like it as much as my Mom's cookbook, so when they re-released the original version from the '30's/'40's I snapped that up because the recipes were just better. 👍
with all my seedless blackberry jam I've canned....I now have a new use for them. Thank you so much. I can't wait to have a reason to make one.!!!!
Thank you I can't wait to make it 💜💜🙋
I am a new watcher, love your videos. Watching cooking videos is relaxing.
I wish you would put out your own cookbook because I love everything you make
I made this cake last night, and it turned out great. It's very moist. I made it as a sheet cake, but the next time, I will do 2 layers. Thank you so much for sharing your recipe, and you explained it so well.
I'm glad you liked it, Charcie!
Your cake looks wonderful Miss Phyllis! Very moist and yummy!! Last year I made a Apple Sauce cake. It was so good. It had a lot if spices in it. I Actually got the recipe from that 1970's show The Walton's (Mama use to make John Boy one all the time) lol. I managed to get my hands on the recipe that the real "Mama" use to make=)
Hope you're feeling better sweetheart n love you so much 💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗
God Bless You and your beautiful family 💙🕊
I miss you Phyllis I’m still going to your post for recipes
Try adding coconut and diced apples it’s so amazing…also coconut in butter icing decorated with whole pecans and cherries 🍒. Yummy
My mother has been gone since 1975, and she would make blackberry marble cakes. All I remember about it was, she made a from scratch batter, then spooned dollops of berries over top of it. The batter rose up around the berries as it baked.
That must be very sweet
Thank you this sounds delicious Miss Phyllis.
Seems to be a lost art of cooking by scratch and I must admit working much of my children's growing up years I didn't cook from scratch near as much as my mother always did the late fifties and all of the sixties and most of 70s even,... the food was so much better tasting.
Will make this cake for sure and in my recipe file I will note it came grime miss Phyllis.
JUST LIKE MY GRANNY'S. ....EXACTLY THE SAME!!!❤❤❤
Oh My Goddess!!! Finally a Jam cake recipe!!! My Grandmother, Inez (middle name), talked about making these around Christmas time for her friends and family!! Thank You Ms. Phyllis! Do you ever make coconut cake and chilled boiled custard?
I wish i had a Kitchen Aid mixer! Things would be so much easier.
I knew all these great recipes were from the South😊
I'd give anything to find my grandmother's seven layer jam cake. It took all day long to make including the icing. My father would attach the grinder to the kitchen table and grind all the ingredients for the icing for my mother. We only had it for christmas as it was sooo much work to make.
Hi Miss Phyllis..just discovered you recently..of course I'm hooked! We're the same age and even though I've been cooking and baking for years I continue to learn new things..I would like to give you a hint...instead of trying to scope out the flour from a cup put it on a sheet of wax paper...makes it so easy to get in the mixing bowl and you can roll the wax paper and tuck it away for next time...I want to subscribe but don't see how to do it!

I am wondering if this is what my mother called a "jam nut cake" Every Christmas she made that & a "Lane Cake" & sometimes a coconut cake with 7 minute frosting - all from scratch. The jam nut cake was dense & I loved it. The recipes are here somewhere & although I'm not really a cake baker I would like to look at them.
Hi again Miss, Phyllis. I am thinking about making this to take to the office next week. Everyone seems to shy away from a slice of cake, but they all *love* cupcakes. Would you recommend any changes to the recipe (aside from cooking time, I'm sure) to make this recipe into cupcakes? Would you suggest the same glaze or another icing?
I think this cake recipe would make fine cupcakes. As far as the icing or glaze I would just use the same glaze and dip the tops of the cupcakes in the glaze.
This reminds me of my Grandma, but she always used seeded Blackberry jam. For some reason everyone loved the seeds. I didn't. She also baked it in a square cast iron skillet
My family makes jam cake only during the holidays. We put raisons coated with flour. If you use golden raisons they are less apt to sink to the bottom. I dont know why but i was told to put the baking soda in my buttermilk and add pretty soon because it will foam over. My mother didnt icing her cakes. I starded a few years ago to icing mine with caramel icing. We also used a bundit pan
This is the recipe I’ve been looking for! Do you use salted or unsalted butter in the cake and icing?
What an amazing looking cake Phyllis. It looks stunning I love it. Great with the nuts inside it also. Fantastic
Thanks Ange. So very sorry for the trouble with terrorist in Australia. It seems no country is immune from all this trouble. We have certainly had more than our share here in this country.
It's very sad Phyllis and those people are just evil. I feel so sorry for them
I love you thumbs ☝ up for you and I hope you will be blessed with good health you and Mr.Buckly and you make a trillion dollars all you great cooks and chefs.You are showing your expertise and you will be blessed abundantly.Ms.Phyllis why.want you make some cookbooks.Have the good ole 50s-70s recipes and up to now.Title it.Retro Recipes from the 50s-70s and Modern Recipes or Ole Thyme Recipes then and Now.And do an second edition Holidays and Special Occasions Then&Now from the 50s till Now.They will sell too because ill buy them.love ya truly.😙😗😚😘😍💗❤💚💜💙💛💓💕💖💞💋💋💋💋
I think I gained 5 lbs just looking at that. Looks so yummy and delicious!
Yum!
Listen, im so glad i found my homemade bretheren! Ive been trying recipes from the internet and hardly none of them turn out!!
Question: I already cooked some Blackberries from the store down with sugar on the stove- and deseeded it. So i have blackberry juice and sugar cooked together- Can i use that???
You would just need to make sure the liquid is the same amount as in the recipe to make sure the cake does not fall.
