1 c. shelled English walnuts
1 c. raisins
1 1/2 c. coconut
1 c. blackberry jam
1 c. sugar
1/2 lb. butter (2 sticks)
3 eggs
1 tsp. soda
1 c. buttermilk
3 c. all-purpose flour
Preparation
-
In a food chopper with a fine blade, grind together walnuts, raisins, coconut and jam; set aside.
Cream together sugar and butter and beat eggs into mixture.
Add soda to buttermilk.
Add to creamed mixture alternately with 3 cups flour.
Add ground fruit and jam mixture to batter and bake in 6 very thin layers, about 1 1/4 cups batter in each, at 325\u00b0 to 350\u00b0 in cake pans which have been lined with greased and lightly floured waxed paper (sticking is a problem since cake is crumbly).
