Notes: This is Tom’s mother’s recipe for Jam Cake. She always made it for Christmas and it was his favorite. Although I personally have never made this recipe, I think you should have a copy for your family records. Aunt Janice gave me this copy and thought we should keep it in the family. Maybe we can surprise Grandpa and make it for him one Christmas.
