AWESOME FRUIT COCKTAIL CAKE



Awesome Fruit Cocktail Cake image

The recipe that I tweaked came from an old family cookbook that my Momma put together 30 years ago. My Poppa requested it, because I'm the cake maker in the family, and I made it following the recipe. Since then I have tweaked it to the AWESOME level. I hope you enjoy.

2 cup(s) ap flour
2 teaspoon(s) baking soda
1/2 teaspoon(s) kosher salt

1 teaspoon(s) vanilla butter and nut flavoring
GLAZE/SAUCE
1/3 cup(s) light brown sugar
1 cup(s) butter
1 cup(s) sugar
1/2 cup(s) evaporated milk

Steps:

  • Preheat oven 350. Melt 3T butter in saucepan. Throw the pecans in and sautee for a couple of minutes. Put these in a well greased bundt pan. Set aside
  • Mix with blender all cake ingredients except fruit cocktail and pineapple. When well blended stop and stir in the pineapple and fruit cocktail. Make sure you followed the instructions like beating the eggs etc. Pour this mixture over pecans in bundt pan. Bake for 35-40 min. Insert toothpick if you are unsure if it is done. Take out and set aside.
  • In small saucepan melt butter. Then add sugars and evaporated milk. Cook down until sugars are no longer crystalized.
  • Take your cake and poke hole in bottom with toothpick. Pour some of the sauce over the bottom and let sit a min to soak in. Then put it on the cake plate. Poke holes in top of cake with toothpick. Pour the remaining sauce over the cake slowly so it can absorb. It will run and make a puddle on the cake plate, that is ok. This allows those who want it to get more sauce. Enjoy!!!! This is a cake that is better to serve the next day after it has gotten spongy.

FRUIT COCKTAIL CAKE (FROM A CAKE MIX)



Fruit Cocktail Cake (from a Cake Mix) image

This delicious cake comes together fast, starting with a cake mix. I think the flavor is very subtle, and the cake is quite moist. The original recipe had a syrupy sweet icing on it, but I added the coconut/brown sugar on top instead, and I think it makes this a nice snacking cake. (*NOTE: I used a fruit cocktail I've found that has guava, mango, etc., and found the pieces a little large, so I chopped it up a bit before adding to mixture. The regular fruit cocktail with grapes, etc., should be fine w/o that)

  • Add 1/4 of the flour mix to the creamy butter mixture alternately with a little of the liquid; mix well after each addition. Keep doing this till there is no more flour or liquid left. Your cake batter should be rich and smooth/ If needed, add a tablespoon or more milk or juice--not too much, you don't want your cake watery.
  • Fold in the drained fruit cocktail to your batter and mix well till all fruit is coated and not floating on top of batter.
  • Pour the batter into two well greased and lightly floured loaf pans or a bundt cake pan.
  • If using non-stick pans then just spray with a little oil spray.
  • Bake for 40 to 50 minutes for loaf pans or till lightly golden brown and insert toothpick comes out clean. If baking in bundt pan, it should be about the same time.

  • Put icing sugar in sieve and tap side of sieve to get a light dusting all over top of cake.
  • Serve cake slices with whipped cream or ice cream, makes a yummy light dessert.
  • Note: you can do a summer berry cake by adding fresh fruit like blueberries, raspberries, strawberries, diced peaches, pears, and or nectarines.
  • When making the fresh berry cake use either 1/2 cup of fruit cocktail juice + 1/cup milk OR use 1 cup of milk, but if your replacing the juice with the whole cup of milk you will need to add 1/3 cup more sugar.
