    Source of Recipe


    Internet

    List of Ingredients




    1/4 cup unsalted butter, softened
    1/3 cup packed brown sugar
    1/4 cup granulated sugar
    3 cups fresh or frozen cranberries
    1/4 cup unsaled butter, softened
    2 eggs
    1/2 cup milk
    1 tsp. vanilla extract
    1 1/4 cups flour
    1 1/2 tsp. baking powder
    1/2 tsp. salt
    1/2 cup chopped, toasted pecans
    2 tsp. finely shredded lemon peel
    2 tsp. finely shredded orange peel
    Sweetened whipped cream, if desired

    Recipe



    Grease and lightly flour a 9" X 1 1/2" round cake pan. Line bottom with parchment paper; grease paper. Set aside.

    In a medium bowl beat 1/4 cup butter, the 1/3 cup brown sugar, and the granulated sugar with an electric mixer on low to medium speed until well combined. Spread on bottom of prepared pan. Press cranberries into mixture. (NOTE: if using frozen cranberries, do not defrost before adding to recipe.)

    Place 1/4 cup butter and the 1/2 cup brown sugar in a large mixing bowl. Beat with an electric mixer on medium speed until well combined. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well and scraping down bowl after each addition. (Mixture will have a curdled look.) Add flour, baking powder, and salt; mix until just combined. Fold in pecans and citrus peels.

    Spread batter gently over cranberries. Bake in a 350 degree oven for 45 to 50 minutes, or until a wooden toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean. Cool on a wire rack 15 minutes. Loosen cake from pan; invert onto plate. Remove parchment paper. Serve warm or at room temperature, with sweetened whipped cream, if desired.
