Two! Two posts in the same week. Do I get a gold-star next to my name? Now I just need to get back on Twitter…
Cranberries are awesome. This week’s Tuesdays with Dorie recipe is an upside-down cake. Instead of the traditional pineapples, it uses fresh or frozen cranberries. Because it’s a little early for fresh cranberries, I used frozen. I made a 1/2 recipe and made two (another two! I’m sensing a theme.) mini 4″ cakes. I gave one to my family and kept the other for me.
The cake tastes like Autumn, with cinnamon and vanilla. It made me look forward to cooler temperatures and the changing leaves. Oh, who am I kidding. I live in Southern California leaves don’t change here and the only difference between summer and fall is it gets a few degrees cooler. And it makes me dread winter. I’m a wimp and freeze in Southern California winters. I’ll probably make the cake again for the holidays; it’s just so easy to make and delicious.
Thanks to Sabrina of Superfluous for hosting the Cranberry Upside-Downer. For the recipe, visit her blog or buy the book.

You’re a woman on the wild side with 2 posts in one week. This cake looks super delish. I just want to eat it right off the screen.

i loved this cake recipe. i did the peach version but can’t wait to do the cranberry one this fall. yours looks delicious.
It does remind me of Autumn too! It looks very good.
I live in Idaho in the mountains..all the trees are starting to change into flaming yellow and orange. It’s so lovely. We do get the cold/snow here though!
Your cake looks delicious. I skipped the glaze but can see I shouldn’t have.
I love the mini cake. The cranberries look so bright and colorful on it!
It looks great!
That is the cutest baby upside-downer I have ever seen! And, helps with portion control as this was a very good cake. So nice stopping by to visit with you!

Nice to see you back! The cake looks really great.
you’re right about this being a very fall-like cake. I tried to hang on to summer by doing a White Peach version.
Wasnt the weather a total tease awhile back when it was all drizzly~I had the A/C on when I made my cake this week!

Love the dark color you got on yours. Good cake. Good TWO posts!
Cute little cake! I must get some small pans so I don’t feel compelled to eat a full-sized one.
Yes! You do need to get back on twitter. We miss you.
Little itty bitty cake looks perfect. I made 1/2 recipe and it was perfect for a 6″ skillet.
What cute little cakes! Love the glaze.
