Jelly Cakes Recipes

GRANDMA CAMPBELL'S JELLY CAKE

Steps:

• Melt butter and sugar together.
• Add eggs, flour and milk.
• The recipes says 1/2 cup milk, but Grandma added"OR until of batter consistency" at the bottom.
• Then add vanilla.
• Bake in 4 greased and floured 9 inch pans at 400 degrees for 15-18 minutes, as the layers should be about 1/2 inch thick when done.
• Melt the apple jelly.
• Pour 3 ounces of jelly over each layer as they are stacked.
• Sometimes I also frost the sides with Vanilla Buttercream Frosting, or serve the cake warm with whipped cream.

NANA'S OLD FASHIONED JELLY CAKE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour a 9x13-inch pan.
• In a large bowl, cream together the margarine and sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each. Stir in the flour and milk, alternating so the dough does not become too stiff or too runny. Mix in vanilla. Pour the batter into the prepared pan.
• Bake for 35 to 40 minutes in the preheated oven, until the center springs back when pressed lightly. Spread the raspberry jelly over the cake while it is warm, but not hot, so it will soak into the cake.
