ingredients
directions
- Cream butter & sugar in a medium bowl; add eggs then flour, baking powder and salt mix well.
- Add almond extract and mix the batter well. (I used a Kitchen Aid Mixer with paddle but a hand held mixer should work just fine).
- Heat oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Spread batter into an UN-greased 8” x 8” glass or metal pan.
- Cut plums in half following the seams then remove the pits.
- Stand the plums up in the batter in three even rows.
- Most of the plum will be out of the batter but during cooking the cake will rise and engulf the plum until only the top shows.
- Mix together an additional 1/4 cup Sugar with 1/2 tsp Cinnamon.
- Sprinkle the mixture over the batter and plums.
- Bake for 30 minutes.
- Cool and eat.
