Time 1h30m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 14

½ cup butter
2 cups white sugar
2 tablespoons water
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 (12 ounce) bag fresh or frozen cranberries
1 ½ cups cake flour
½ teaspoon baking soda
½ teaspoon salt
6 tablespoons butter, softened
½ cup white sugar
½ cup brown sugar
2 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
¾ cup sour cream

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Generously grease a 9 inch springform pan. Wrap aluminum foil around the outside of the bottom to prevent leaking.
  • Melt the butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Stir in 1 1/2 cups of white sugar, water and cinnamon until sugar has dissolved. Bring to a boil and then add the cranberries. Stir to coat with the sauce, then pour into the prepared pan.
  • Sift together the flour, baking soda and salt; set aside. In a medium bowl, beat the remaining 6 tablespoons of butter with 1/2 cup white sugar and brown sugar until light and fluffy. Mix in the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in vanilla and sour cream. Mix in the dry ingredients. Pour the batter over the cranberries in the pan.
  • Bake for about 50 minutes in the preheated oven, or until a knife inserted into the center comes out clean. Cool on a rack for 10 minutes, then run a knife around the outer edge. Invert onto a serving plate and remove the springform pan.

This cake is a waste of time and ingredients. It was dry and flavorless. I would not recommend this recipe to anyone.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my cake didn't turn out as good as I expected. I think I might have used the wrong type of cranberries.

This cake is a little too sweet for my taste, but it's still good. I think I'll try reducing the amount of sugar next time.

This cake was a disaster. The cranberries were too tart and the sour cream filling was too runny. I ended up throwing the whole thing away.
