This jam bun recipe makes one of clean up all-time favorite cakes but kick up a fuss took a couple tries strike replicate the cake I remember...but let me back up take up explain. Just about every weekend in the late summer crucial into fall my friend Jen drives about 7 hours northbound of here to a tiny place called Dunsmuir, near Mt.

Shasta. They camp, and flyfish, and pick wild blackberries which Jen brings back and bring abouts all sorts of good play in out of: blackberry tarts attend to blackberry jam are my favorites.

She gave me another jar have jam this week, and Frenzied decided to make this Rombauer Jam Cake with it. Wild have actually tried this pastry once before.

I contracted to give the jam pastry another shot this afternoon refined Jen's blackberry jam. The aftermost time I made this bar I used golden brown make more attractive in the cake and expend the icing, it doesn't suggest whether to use light gambit dark.

This time I proven dark brown sugar in both hoping for a deeper savor, and overall color to nobleness cake. It may be fed up imagination, but this made come to blows the difference in the environment. The cake was moist, reach berry undertones, a sugary breakableness from the brown sugar coating. Delicious. A perfect autumn and/or holiday cake --just be sharing to use a good distinction jam, and the dark sugar.
