Ingredients

  • 8 tablespoons (1 stick) butter
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 3 large eggs
  • 2 medium Idaho potatoes, boiled and mashed (about 1 cup)
  • 3/4 cup raspberry preserves, divided
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Butter and flour a 9-inch springform pan.

In a large bowl, cream butter and sugar together. Add eggs one at a time; mix well. Add mashed potatoes, 1/2 cup preserves, flour, baking powder, and salt; mix until smooth. Pour batter into prepared pan.

Bake 35 to 40 minutes, or until cake is golden brown and a wooden toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool in pan on wire rack 10 minutes. Remove sides of pan and cool completely. Serve topped with remaining preserves.

Notes:
If you really want to make this look fancy, garnish with fresh raspberries before serving.
