Cranberry Pop Cake
6T butter, room temp
2c sugar
4c flour
1t salt
4t baking powder
2c Evaporated milk
1 ½ bags fresh cranberries
Preheat oven to 350
Cream butter and sugar together until mixed well. Stir in salt and baking powder. Gradually add flour and milk, alternating, ending with flour. Fold in cranberries (You do not have to use them all, just until you think there is a fair amount in batter).
Pour into a greased Bundt pan and bake for 40 – 60 minutes. Check center to see if it is set about five minutes before time is up. Depending on the thickness of your bundt pan, cake may cook faster.
Cool cake and then flip onto a flat plate. Serve with warm butter sauce if desired.
Hot Butter Sauce
2 cubes butter
2 cups sugar
1c heavy cream
2t Real vanilla
Melt butter over medium heat. Stir in sugar to dissolve, add heavy cream and stir well. Simmer 10 minutes, stirring often and making sure not to scorch butter or cream. Add vanilla and mix. Serve warm over pop cake.
If there would have been more room on my cake stand, I would have decorated the bottom edge of the cake with cranberries as well.
Thanks to Elizabeth Parmley for this fabulous recipe!

Hi there,
Thank you for sharing your fabulous recipe! I've tried several and they are wonderful. Can you please confirm the quantity on the sugar for the butter sauce? It doesn't say and I would love to try this recipe for the holidays.
Thanks again. Your website is great!
The recipe calls for 2 cups sugar for the sauce... it is sweet ~ literally! Thanks!

This cranberry cake is beautiful in it's bundt form! Lovely blog!
Ciao from a neighbor.. :)
I have one more silly question. The cranberries that you have on the top of your cake for garnishment. Did you do anything to them? Are they raw, straight from the bag? I want to make this for Christmas but I wasn't sure if you did anything to the cranberries on top of the cake to give them any flavor because the fresh cranberries from the bag are crisp and tart. Thank you for your wonderful advice!!!
The cranberries on top are just from the bag- they were more for decoration than anything else...
