OLD FASHIONED OATMEAL CAKE

Steps:

• 1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees and Grease and Flour a 9x13 pan or a 9" round spring-form pan. Grease and flour all pans even darker non-stick pans. In the two pictures above I used the 9" spring-form pan.
• 2. Put 1 stick of margarine the quick oats and the boiling water in a small bowl and set aside for about 20 minutes to completely melt the margarine and allow the oats to soak up the water. Stir after 20 minutes.
• 3. In a larger mixing bowl mix together white suger, brown sugar, eggs, flour, salt, baking soda, cinnamon and vanilla. With electric beaters.
• 4. Add the oat mixture to the second mixture and blend well with an electric mixer. Do not over-beat the batter; just mix until well incorporated. Scrape the bowl with a spatula and turn the batter making sure you have everything on the bottom mixed in well.
• 5. Pour batter into a prepared 9x13 pan or a 9" round spring form pan. Bake the 9x13 pan for 35 to 40 minutes until a toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. For a 9" round spring form pan bake for 45 to 50 minutes checking after 45 minutes for doneness. Continue to bake as needed in increments of 3 minutes at a time. The cake should be pulling away from the pan a little and the center should spring back when lightly touched.
• 6. Remove cake from oven and allow to cool for 30 minutes. While the cake cools, mix the topping ingredients in a saucepan and bring to a boil, stirring all the time. Remove from heat and spread over the warm cake in the cake-pan.
• 7. Put the cake under the broiler to brown the entire top. Make sure you watch carefully as the sugar and butter heat quickly and will burn if not watched carefully.
• 8. You can serve directly from the 9x13 cake pan or if you want a nice presentation, you can bake in a spring-form pan and once completely cooled, run a spreading knife around the cake and remove the spring-form ring, you can serve directly off of the spring-form bottom or run a spatula under the cake and carefully slide the cake onto a large serving dish before cutting and serving.

OLD FASHIONED IRISH OATMEAL CAKE WITH CARAMEL PECAN FROSTING

Steps:

• In a small mixing bowl, combine the old fashioned oats with boiling water. Allow to sit for 15-20 minutes before making your cake.
• Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) and generously coat your 9 x 13 baking pan with butter or non-stick cooking spray.
• In a large mixing bowl, cream together your butter with both white and light brown sugar. Pour your vanilla extract into eggs, mix, then add to the soaked oatmeal and combine.
• Add the baking soda, cinnamon, and nutmeg (plus optional salt) then combine. Add the flour and mix until thoroughly incorporated.
• Add the wet ingredients to your flour mixture and mix just until all of the flour has been incorporated. Transfer to your coated 9 x 13 pan and place on the middle rack of your preheated oven.
• Bake at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the middle of your oatmeal cake comes out clean (or with a crumb or two on it, but not wet or 'gooey'). Allow cake to cool in the pan while you make the frosting.
• In a medium saucepan, melt your butter at medium heat. Add the light brown sugar, sweetened condensed milk, and vanilla. Stir to combine and until all of the brown sugar has melted.
• Whisk frequently while the caramel mixture heats up, then constantly while cooking. Reduce heat as needed to keep your caramel at a low (soft) boil, and just barely bubbling.
• Continue to whisk for 5-10 minutes, or until your caramel has thickened and darkened to a golden light brown caramel coloring. It will be soft, creamy, and still pourable (although very thick).
• Transfer your caramel mixture to a cool bowl, stir in crushed pecans (reserve some for topping your cake, if desired) and allow to cool 10-15 minutes (but still slightly warm) before spreading over your cake. Finish with additional crushed pecans, if desired.
