Jam Cake Recipe

	Blueeyes68ky / All my dishes 1 year, 7 months ago This was my mom's recipe. I don't know where she got it. She used berries with juice in the cake. This is a rich moist cake. I don't know about the servings. This is also a good cake to make and give for Christmas or just bake for yourself. Prep:20m Cook:35m Servings:0	Blueeyes68k
