New England Spider Cake
This is a classic New England style recipe for sweet Northern cornbread cake that has somehow been lost over the passing of the years. However, it deserves to be reborn, as this is a buried treasure which deserves to be served far and wide. It's called spider cake because it was originally baked in a cast iron spider, a legged skillet used throughout the 1700s and 1800s. This is a wonderful sweet cornmeal cake, made in the same fashion and using the same ingredients as typical cornbread. But, right before you slide it into the oven, you pour one cup of heavy cream into the center of the batter. It settles into three layers as it bakes, with a spongy cake on the bottom, a crusty top layer, and sandwiched in the middle is a beautiful creamy layer of custard. I've placed a slightly updated version of the recipe on my Web site, giving credit to the original recipe. It's easy to make and wonderfully delicious! The recipe for this cake can be found on my Web site, Cast Iron Chaos, at:

1912 'Fannie Farmer' Littleton Spider Corn Cake Recipe - Old Cookbook Show - Glen And Friends
Today we are making a corn cake recipe (how is that different than a corn bread recipe?) from the 1912 Fannie Farmer cookbook. This is also known as a New England Spider Cake / New England Skillet Corn Cake - possibly because of the type of cast iron pot it was originally cooked in. Though others say the name stems from the spider web of milk baked into it.
Ingredients:
1 1/3 cups corn meal
1/3 cup flour
1 cup sour milk
1 teaspoon soda
2 eggs
2 cups sweet milk
¼ cup sugar
½ teaspoon salt
1 ½ tablespoons butter
Method:
Mix and sift corn meal and flour and add sour milk mixed with soda, eggs, well beaten, one half the sweet milk, sugar, and salt.
Heat an iron frying pan, add butter, and, when melted, turn in mixture.
Pour over remaining milk and bake in a hot oven.
Cut in pie shaped pieces for serving.
*I used an oven that was 375ºF and cooked for about 45 minutes.

Spooky Spider Cake | Renee Conner
It is nearly October, which means Halloween is right around the corner. I was inspired to make this Spooky Spider Cake, by my fear of spiders! That's what Halloween is all about right, good-natured fright?!
I was excited to try out this marshmallow spider web technique that I've seen all around the web for the past few years. As far as I can tell, it originated with Carrie Sellman for The Cake Blog (and Country Living Magazine!), check out her article on the cake blog:
