Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 325F. Grease (with shortening) and flour a 10 inch 12 cup bundt pan. Beat sugar and 1 cup butter at medium speed with a heavy-duty electric stand mixer until light and fluffy. Add eggs, 1 at a time, beating just until blended after each addition.
  • Stir together flour and next 5 ingredients. Stir together buttermilk and baking soda. Add flour mixture to butter mixture alternately with buttermilk mixture, beginning and ending with flour mixture. Beat at low speed just until blended after each addition. Add jam and vanilla, and beat just until blended. Stir in pecans. Pour batter into bundt pan.
  • Bake at 325F for 1 hour to 1 hour and 15 minutes or until a long wooden pick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool cake in pan on a wire rack 20 minutes; remove from pan to wire rack, and cool completely (about 2 hours).
  • Make caramel glaze: Bring brown sugar, whipping cream, and butter to a boil in a 2-quart saucepan over medium heat, whisking constantly; boil, whisking constantly, 1 minute. Remove from heat; stir in vanilla. Gradually whisk in powdered sugar until smooth. Gently stir 3-5 minutes or until mixture begins to cool and thicken.
  • Immediately pour caramel glaze over cooled cake.
