Hi all,
Just took the cake out of the oven and guess what!! It was a mess!
Actually, I should re-state that. The top was a mess. The bottom was perfect! The bottom cake was moist and buttery and soft and everything a cake should be. The top, however, was completely carmelized and stuck to the pan, ruining my (now burnt) design. it would have been salvageable in a surrealist world where black is a fruit color and burnt sugar is a flavor (oh wait....)
In any case, I'm now thinking my mistake was cooking the brown sugar too long. So if you make this, try decreasing the amount of cook time so that the sugar/butter mix doesn't reduce and stick to the pan like mine did. But definitely try out the dough mix if you want a delicious, light, and not-too-sweet base for your upside down cake!
Surrendering to Alex,
Jenny
