Ingredients

  • ⅔ cup packed brown sugar

  • ⅓ cup butter

  • 1 ¼ cups cranberries

  • ½ cup chopped pecans

  • ½ cup butter, room temperature

  • ¾ cup white sugar

  • 2 eggs

  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

  • 1 cup sour cream

  • 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour

  • 1 ½ teaspoons baking powder

  • 1 teaspoon baking soda

  • ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon

  • ¼ teaspoon salt

  3. In a large bowl, cream together the butter and 3/4 cup sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla. Beat in the flour mixture alternately with the sour cream. Pour batter into prepared pan.

  4. Bake in the preheated oven for 60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean. Cool in pan for 10 minutes, then invert onto serving platter and carefully remove pan. Serve warm.
