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.

Categories     Cakes

Number Of Ingredients 16

3 tablespoon(s) butter
1 cup(s) pecans, in pieces
CAKE
1 1/2 cup(s) sugar
2 cup(s) ap flour
2 teaspoon(s) baking soda
1/2 teaspoon(s) kosher salt
2 large eggs, beaten
1 can(s) fruit cocktail, in syrup
1/2 cup(s) pineapple, crushed with juice
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)

FRUIT COCKTAIL CAKE



Fruit Cocktail Cake image

I adopted this delicious cake recipe from the RecipeZaar account in February 2005. The only changes I made were to add some vanilla and cut back the baking time. Be sure to top it with Recipe #7062, another of my adopted recipes.

Provided by GrandmaIsCooking

Categories     Dessert

Time 40m

Yield 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 cups unbleached flour
1 1/2 cups sugar
2 teaspoons baking soda
1/8 teaspoon salt
2 large eggs
1 (15 ounce) can fruit cocktail, undrained
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Steps:

  • In a large bowl, stir together flour, sugar, baking soda and salt.
  • Add eggs, fruit cocktail and vanilla and mix all ingredients well (by hand--do not use electric mixer); batter will seem very thick at first (if you use good fruit cocktail that has mostly fruit, not all juice), but this is the way it should be (the juice in the fruit cocktail is the only liquid in this recipe except, of course, the eggs).
  • Pour into a greased 9 inch x 13 inch pan.
  • Bake at 350°F for about 30 minutes or until toothpick inserted near center comes out clean.
  • This cake is best with Fruit Cocktail Cake Icing #7062.
