---------- Recipe via Meal-Master (tm) v8.05 Title: Old Fashioned Fruit Cake #4 Categories: Cheesecakes, Fruits, Chocolate Yield: 3 servings 3/4 c Butter 1 c Sugar 1/2 c Molasses 1/2 c Grape juice 3/4 c Sour milk 1 c Blackberry jam 1 c Watermelon rind preserves 1 c Fig preserves 3 c Plain flour 4 c Pecans; chopped 2 ts Soda 8 Eggs 2 sm Raw apples; chopped 1/2 ts Salt (opt.) 1 Raisins 1/2 lb Candied pineapple 1 lb Candied cherries 4 ts Cocoa Preparation : I added strawberries, peach and pear (about 1/2 cup of each). Mix the above, cook in a greased iron skillet with wax paper lining, cook on 300 degrees. This cake freezes well. My mother made 3 of the above cakes shortly before Thanksgiving, one was cut for Thanksgiving, one for Christmas and one for New Year’s. They were placed in a cupboard on the back porch. As we brought in the wood for the night it was stocked on the porch near this old cupboard. (My mother’s Grandmother Curtis, Granny was a descendant of Richard Curtis the first Baptist Preacher in this area from South Carolina). My what an aroma! And the taste was there too.
