How to Make Grandma Campbell's Jelly Cake

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9x13 inch baking pan.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt.
  3. In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
  4. Beat in eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, alternating with the buttermilk, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined.
  6. Spread half of the batter evenly into the prepared pan.
  7. Spread the jelly evenly over the batter.
  8. Pour the remaining batter over the jelly and spread to create an even layer.
  9. Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
  10. Let the cake cool completely in the pan before slicing and serving. Enjoy! (Even better the next day!)
