I've been trying to manage my time a little better lately, and as a result I had the opportunity this past week to visit the blogs of some of the creative and talented people out there.
I was thrilled to have come across a post by Lisa at "The Pursuit of Happiness" where she shared her recipe for Cranberry Upside-down Cake (adapted from a Cooking Light). We were having dinner with friends on Sunday, and the festive cake sounded like just the perfect sweet treat to bring. I got an extra surprise when my husband offered to do the baking! He doubled the recipe and baked it in a 12" round cake pan lined with parchment.
It came out beautifully. The cranberries glistened like ruby-red Christmas baubles. The cake was absolutely delicious! Because we doubled the recipe, each family was able to take some cake home for the next day. My husband and I enjoyed ours with our coffee in the morning.
Whether you're looking for an easy and elegant cake for a holiday dessert, or for a little something sweet for brunch, this is a recipe that I highly recommend. To get the recipe, visit HERE. Enjoy!

Personally, I don't think it's possible to be a perfect dessert if it doesn't contain any chocolate, but this still sounds pretty yummy ;)
There is a fun surprise waiting for you on my blog this morning :)
Excited for the link party next year and very happy you liked the cake! I gobbled mine up way too fast and now I'm thinking I need to make another one! : )
Oh that looks YUM. I love cranberries (usually dried though), but this cake looks so good and moist.
Yumm, recipes like this Jen, do not help me on my losing weight quest! It looks great though!
Yum this does sound like a perfect Christmas dessert!
That looks beautiful and delicious!
Cranberry Upside down Cake? You know, that might be fun. I've never had Upside down cake. I've never really tasted cranberry except Welch's Cranberry drink. I wonder if it would balance itself against the strong taste of cranberry and the sweet taste of cake...
You and your husband were very brave to try a new recipe with friends coming over! It looks so beautiful and glimmering! Away with the figgy pudding!! I have been reading your list of fav movies and been very amused! You are diverse like me! So cool! Several of my favorites are in there as well.
Sounds fantastic. I may have to try it.
Oh yeah...this was good...so very good. It is on my Christmas dessert list!
