Steps:
- Beat the first 6 ingredients at low speed with an electric mixer for 1 minute. Scrape down sides and beat at medium speed 2 more minutes until well blended, scraping down sides if needed. Pour batter evenly into 3 greased and floured 9-inch round cake pans.
- Bake at 350 for 20-23 minutes or until cakes are light brown and spring back when lightly pressed with your finger.
- Cool in pans on wire racks for 10 minutes. Remove from pans; cool completely on wire racks.
- Place on layer on a serving platter. Spread with 1/2 of blackberry jam, leaving a 1/2-inch border. Spread a smooth, thin layer of warm Quick Caramel Frosting over jam. Repeat layers. Top with third cake layer. Spread top and sides of cake with remaining Quick Caramel Frosting, working quickly before the frosting hardens. (If frosting becomes too hard to spread, place it over low heat for 1 minute, stirring constantly.) Let cake stand 10 minutes.
- Quick Caramel Frosting:.
- Bring first 3 ingredients to boil in a 3 1/2-quart saucepan over medium heat, whisking constantly, about 2 minutes.
- Stir in milk and bring to a boil. Remove from heat. Add powdered sugar and vanilla, stirring with a wooden spoon until smooth. Use immediately.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Butter and flour two 8-inch round cake pans.
- In a medium bowl, sift together the flour, baking soda, allspice, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, salt and cocoa powder. Set aside.
- With an electric mixer, cream the sugar, butter and vanilla until light and fluffy. With the mixer running, add the eggs one at a time, beating well and scraping the bowl after each addition. Blend in jam.
- Add half of the dry ingredient mixture, then half the buttermilk. Repeat and mix just until blended.
- Stop the mixer and fold in raisins and pecans.
- Pour batter into prepared pans and bake for about 25 to 30 minutes or until a tester inserted into the center of the pan comes out clean. Place pans on a wire rack to cool.
- In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over low heat. Stir in the brown sugar and cook, slowly stirring, for 2 minutes or until the sugar dissolves.
- Whisk in the milk and bring to a slow boil, slowly stirring constantly.
- Take off heat and stir in vanilla.
- Stir or whisk in powdered sugar, 1/4 cup at a time, until the right consistency is reached - thick enough to frost the cake but not lumpy.
- Let cool to room temperature before frosting the cake.
- If the cakes have domed on the top, cut the top of the dome off so each section of the cake is fairly flat.
- Place one cake layer on the serving platter you plan to use. (Note: If you place pieces of wax paper around the edge of the serving platter and then put the cake on top, the paper will catch any frosting that drips when you frost the cake. You can then gently pull them out after you are done. This way, the serving platter stays clean.)
- Spread some of the frosting on the top of the base layer, about 1/4-inch thick.
- Take the second cake layer and place it upside down on top of the frosting (this way the smoothest side, which is the bottom during baking, is the top of your cake).
- Frost the top and sides with remaining frosting.

Steps:
- Center an oven rack and preheat the oven to 325°F.
- In a large bowl, sift together the flour, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, and salt, then whisk the mixture to ensure that the ingredients are well distributed.
- In a small bowl, stir together the jam and the buttermilk.
- In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, cream the butter and sugar together on medium-high speed until fluffy, about 5 minutes. As you make the batter, stop the mixer frequently and scrape the paddle and the sides of the bowl with a rubber spatula. Blend in the eggs one at a time, adding the next one as soon as the previous one has disappeared into the batter. With the mixer on low speed, add the flour mixture in three parts, alternating with the buttermilk mixture in two parts, beginning and ending with the flour. After each addition, mix until just barely blended and stop and scrape the bowl. Stop the mixer before the last of the flour has been incorporated and complete the blending by hand with a rubber spatula to ensure you do not overbeat the batter.
- Divide the batter evenly into the prepared pans (there will be approximately 1 pound 4 ounces per pan) and smooth the tops. Bake in the middle of the oven until the centers are just barely firm when lightly touched, 32 to 34 minutes. Cool the cakes on a wire rack for 30 minutes before removing them from their pans. Once removed, continue to cool the cakes on the rack, top side up, until they reach room temperature. Leave the parchment paper on until you assemble the cake.
- To assemble the cake, place one of the layers, top side up, on a flat plate or a cake board. Using a thin metal spatula, spread a thin layer of caramel ganache (a bit more than 1/2 cup) on top of the cake and out to the edges of the cake. Sprinkle 2 tablespoons of almonds evenly over the ganache. Align the next cake layer, top side up, on top of the first one, and repeat with another thin layer of ganache and almonds. Place the final layer of cake on top of the cake. Frost the top heavily and the sides lightly with the remainder of the ganache. Lightly press the remaining toasted almonds on the sides of cake.
- This cake is best stored and served at room temperature. In an airtight container, it keeps for up to 5 days.

This is another of those cakes passed down from Mom. When DH and I were married, he did not like cake. Mom has a reputation for making fabulous cakes and she converted him! Prep time includes 15 minute cooling time.
