Total Time 3 hours 0 minutes

Prep Time 50 minutes

Cook Time 1 hours 10 minutes

Yield 12 to 16 servings

Number Of Ingredients 19

2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking soda
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
2 teaspoons ground nutmeg
1 cup sugar
1 1/2 cups (3 sticks) margarine
1 cup brown sugar
3 large eggs
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
2 1/2 cups mashed cooked sweet potatoes
1/2 cup crushed pineapple, drained
1 cup raisins
1 cup chopped walnuts, plus additional for garnish, optional
16 ounces cream cheese, softened
1/3 cup butter, softened
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
3 cups confectioners' sugar

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Adjust the position of the rack to the center of the oven. Grease and flour 2 (9-inch) pans or 3 (8-inch) pans. Set aside.
  • In a large bowl, stir together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, and granulated sugar. Set aside. In the bowl of a mixer, cream margarine and brown sugar on low speed, and then increase speed to medium and beat until well-combined. Gradually add the dry ingredients and beat on low speed until just incorporated. Add eggs, 1 at a time, beating well after each egg and scraping down the sides of the bowl after the addition of each egg. Add vanilla, sweet potatoes, pineapple, raisins, and walnuts and blend on low speed until thoroughly mixed.
  • Pour batter into pans and smooth the surface with a metal spatula. Bake for 1 hour to 1 hour and 10 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in center comes out clean; when you touch the center of the cake, it should spring back. Allow to cool in pans for 10 minutes, and then invert onto a rack and cool completely.
  • For icing: In the bowl of an electric mixer, beat cream cheese and butter on medium speed until smooth. Add vanilla and beat until incorporated. Gradually add sugar and beat on low speed until smooth.
  • Icing the cake: Place 1 cake layer, top-side down, on a cake platter. Using a metal spatula, spread a layer of cream cheese frosting evenly over the top of the cake. Take the next layer and place it on top, rounded-side up. Frost the top and sides of the cake with the remaining frosting. The cake should be refrigerated for about 1 hour to make sure the layers are set. Sprinkle chopped walnuts on top of cake, if desired.

  • 1. Make the frosting: In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat the cream cheese, powdered sugar and vanilla seeds (or extract) together on medium-high speed until the mixture is airy, soft and creamy, about 3 minutes. Make sure there are no large lumps of cream cheese. 2. Add the butter and continue beating on medium speed until very airy, about 2 minutes. Scrape the paddle and side of the bowl to make sure everything is well incorporated, then add the sour cream and continue beating until the frosting is creamy and fluffy. It will keep in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week. Before using, bring the frosting to room temperature for a couple of hours and beat again until light. 3. Make the cake: In a medium saucepan, cover the sweet potato with cold water, then cover with a lid. Bring the water to a boil over medium heat and cook the sweet potato until the center can be easily pierced with a knife, 20 to 25 minutes. Drain and cool the sweet potato until it is safe to handle. Peel, mash the flesh with a fork, then measure 1� cups (340g) of the puree. Keep the rest for another use. 4. Meanwhile, position a rack in the lower third of the oven and preheat to 350�F. Grease the inside of an 8�-by-4�-inch loaf pan with vegetable oil, then line with a piece of parchment paper large enough to hang over the sides. (This will help you lift the cake out of the pan after baking.) Because this is a tall and hefty cake, be sure to use a 1-pound loaf pan. 5. In a large bowl, whisk together the sweet potato puree, vegetable oil, eggs, brown sugar and orange zest until smooth. 6. In a small bowl, stir together both flours, the candied ginger, cinnamon, baking soda, salt, nutmeg and cardamom. Add the dry ingredients into the sweet potato mixture and whisk to combine. 7. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake until golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, 1 hour 25 minutes to 1 hour 35 minutes. If the cake begins to brown too much, cover the top with a piece of aluminum foil. Cool the cake in the pan for 20 minutes, then invert onto a wire rack. Cool the cake completely, then spread the frosting all over the top and sprinkle the candied ginger over it. The cake will keep tightly wrapped in the refrigerator for up to three days.
