Cranberry Cake

This is the yummy, rich dessert I made for small group on Tuesday night. Completely fat free... Ok, maybe not.

3 T butter
1 1/2 c. sugar
1 1/2 tsp vanilla
3 c. sifted cake flour (use 3 cups and take out 6 T instead of sifting)
4 1/2 tsp baking powder
1 tsp salt
1 1/2 c. milk
3 c. whole raw cranberries (if you buy a bag that is usually 3 cups)

Cream butter, sugar and vanilla. Sift dry ingredients together. Add to creamed mixture alternately with milk. Fold in cranberries. Put into greased and floured 9 by 13 pan. Bake 35-45 minutes at 375 or until browned.

Hot butter sauce:
1 c. melted butter
2 c. sugar - add to butter
1 c. cream or evap. milk

Cook in pan 2-5 minutes or until combined and warm.

Serve cranberry cake with hot butter sauce spooned over the top. Enjoy!
