GRANNY'S CHOCOLATE CAKE
This cake recipe was adapted from the chef Larry Forgione, who served his grandmother's cake recipe at his restaurant An American Place. The dessert proved so popular that every time he tried to take it off of the menu, he said his customers threatened to riot. It's a perfect proportion of crumb to buttercream, ideal for birthdays or other celebrations where layer cake is required.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Butter 3 9-inch round cake pans, and line the bottoms with wax or parchment paper. Lightly butter the paper. Dust pans with flour, and shake out excess.

- In a large bowl, using an electric mixer set at medium-high speed, cream the butter. Slowly add the sugar, and continue beating until well blended and light colored. Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Add dry ingredients alternately with the buttermilk mixture in 2 or 3 additions, beating well after each addition. Beat in the melted chocolate until well blended. Spoon batter into prepared pans, and smooth tops with a rubber spatula.

GRANDMA'S CHOCOLATE CAKE
This recipe has been passed down through the family for many generations. It is the only chocolate cake recipe I use anymore. The cake is nice and moist and has such a bold flavor. This cake is great for a German chocolate icing, but I have used all types of icings, which all complement the cake nicely. This cake always pleases the crowd when I make it. Hope you enjoy it as much as my family has for all these years.

MY GREAT GRANDMOTHER'S BUTTERMILK LEMON COCONUT CAKE
My great grandmother made this all the time and no one had the recipe. She never measured anything she put in it. Finally my dad watched her make it one time and before she added each ingredient, he made her stop so he could measure it and write it down. This cake is different from the usual coconut cake in that the icing is less fluffy and instead soaks the cake more. It is to die for!! This is the moistest, densest cake, and the combination of flavors is amazing!

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 300. Grease and flour 3 9" cake pans. Sift together flour and salt.
- Cream shortening and sugar until fluffy.
- Beat in eggs one at a time until combined.
- Add buttermilk, soda, and flavoring.
- Add flour mixture gradually until combined. This is similar to a pound cake batter.
- Pour into cake pans at bake for 40 minutes or until toothpick inserted in cake comes out clean.
- For Icing:.
- Cook sugar, milk, coconut, marshmallows over a double boiler until smooth. Note: as it is hard to find unsweeted coconut, I've used sweeted and reduced the sugar to 1/2 Cup. Fold in almond extract. Icing will be fairly runny--it's supposed to seep into the cake and run off the sides. If you want it to be thicker, add more marshmallows.
- Ice layers and top of cake while still hot. I poke holes in the layers with a toothpick so that the icing seeps down into the cake.
- Cover and refrigerate overnight. No cheating! You MUST serve it after it's been refrigerated, and serve it cold - it's best that way.
- Enjoy!

GRANDMA'S JAM CAKE
This was a special cake growing up. For us, it started with picking the blackberries so my grandmother could make the jam. My grandmother altered the recipie over the years, but I found this very old version in a letter written to my (then newlywed) mother. This would have been in the late 1950s. My grandmother wrote that she got the recipe from her grandmother, so that puts the recipe at about 100 years old. Jam cake just isn't the same without the crunch of the blackberry seeds. When I can't find jam with seeds, I add 1 tablespoon of poppyseeds for crunch.

Steps:
- Cake:.
- In the original recipe, my grandmother starts out by insisting that this be mixed BY HAND with a wooden spoon for 500 strokes. The mixer works fine. The original recipe was written for half lard and half butter (fresh churned), but in the letter my grandmother mentioned that she had started using shortening instead of the lard.
- Cream shortening and sugars.
- Add eggs, jam, and vanilla. Mix well.
- Sift all dry ingredients and add to the creamed sugar mixture. Mix well.
- Add buttermilk and nuts and mix by hand.
- This makes 3 round layers of a 8 or 9 inch layer cake. Bake 350 for 30 minutes or until done. Allow layers to cool before frosting.
- Icing:.
- For the frosting, my grandmother's original instructions called for using the leftover coffee that had been sitting on the stove all day keeping warm. I find that making up a cup of coffee with espresso powder works well. You do want a strong mocha flavor for the icing.
- Mix all the icing ingredients using a mixer. It will be a stiff icing.
- Making layer cakes must have been common back in the early 50s, because my grandmother didn't even bother to write down instructions for making icing or assembling the cake. She just listed the ingredients and how to make stong coffee. Needless to say, assemble like any other layer cake.
