Brown sugar, butter and cinnamon melt into sweet cherries baked under a fine-crumbled, tender sour cream butter cake. You can use dark red cherries, golden Ranier or Royal Anns, or a mixture. This is especially delicious when warm.

CHERRY UPSIDE DOWN CAKE

I found this recipe on another site and want to try it sometime in the near future. DH is a big fan of anything that has cherries so I'm thinking he might like this. 2/25/07 Edited: I made this tonight and DH & I were both amazed. When I took it out of the oven there were no cherries on top. They all sink to the bottom and it's truly an upside down cake. I thought it might be real sweet but it isn't. It has a nice sweet/tart combination. We served it with vanilla ice cream and it is yummy.
