Delicious, slightly caramelized dessert.
Ingredients
- 1/3 cup butter
- ¼ cup molasses
- ¼ cup brown sugar
- ¾ teaspoon ground ginger
- 20 ounces canned pear halves, drained
Cake Batter
- 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
- 1 cup white sugar
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 2/3 cup milk
- 1/3 cup butter, softened
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 egg
Directions
Step 1
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
Step 2
Place 1/3 cup butter in a 9-inch square pan and set in the preheating oven to melt, about 5 minutes.

Stir molasses, brown sugar, and ginger into the melted butter. Arrange pears cut-side down over mixture.
Step 4
Sift flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt into a bowl. Add milk, 1/3 cup butter, and vanilla extract. Beat with an electric mixer until smooth, about 2 minutes. Beat in egg until combined, about 2 minutes. Pour batter over pears.
