BLACKBERRY JAM CAKE WITH CARAMEL ICING

Steps:

• Make the cake:
• In a large bowl with an electric mixer cream together the butter and the sugar until the mixture is light and fluffy. Add the eggs and combine the mixture well. Into a bowl sift together 3 cups of the flour, the allspice, the cloves, the cinnamon, and the salt. In another bowl combine the buttermilk and the baking soda. Add the flour mixture to the butter mixture in batches alternately with the buttermilk mixture, beating well after each addition. In a bowl toss together the raisins, the pecans, and the remaining 1 tablespoon flour and stir the mixture into the batter with the jam, stirring until the mixture is combined well. Line the bottoms of 2 buttered 9-inch cake pans with wax paper and butter the paper. Pour the batter into the pans and bake the layers in the middle of a preheated 325°F. oven for 40 minutes, or until a tester comes out clean. Let the layers cool in the pans on a rack for 15 minutes, invert them onto the rack, and let the layers cool completely.
• Make the icing
• In a saucepan combine the brown sugar, the evaporated milk, and the butter, cook the mixture over moderately low heat, stirring, until the sugar is dissolved, and cook it, undisturbed, washing down any sugar crystals clinging to the side of the pan with a brush dipped in cold water, until it registers 238°F. on a candy thermometer. Transfer the mixture to a bowl and beat it until it is of spreading consistency. If the icing gets too hard to spread, dip the icing spatula in hot water.
• Transfer one of the layers, bottom up, to a cake plate, frost the top with the icing, and top it with the remaining layer, bottom down. Frost the top and sides with the icing.

Fold the flour mixture into the butter mixture, alternating with the buttermilk mixture in these proportions: 1/3 flour mixture, 1/2 buttermilk, 1/3 flour mixture, remaining buttermilk, remaining flour mixture. Do not beat.
• Drain the raisins and fold them into the batter along with the jam and walnuts. Pour into the prepared pan and bake for 60 to 70 minutes, or until the cake is firm and bounces back in the center. Cool for 5 minutes, then unmold onto a rack.
• To make the icing: Melt the butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Stir in the brown sugar and continue stirring for 2 minutes. Slowly pour in the milk and bring the mixture to a boil. Remove from the heat and stir in the vanilla and confectioners' sugar. Beat until creamy and smooth. Thin with a little milk or whisky, if needed. Drizzle over the warm cake.
