Pineapple Apricot Upside-down Cake

From the Garden of Eden, to the experience of Job, to the temptation of the Lord Jesus Christ, to the present day, Satan has tried to move man away from submission to the authority of God and His Word. If he cannot do it through direct enticement or challenge, he will attempt to do it through all manner of subtlety and deception. That is why one must be careful not to embrace new revelations that come through any avenue: impressions, intuition, visions, dreams, tongues, or prophecy. As noted previously, such undermine both the authority and sufficiency of Scripture.

INSTRUCTIONS

In a buttered 9- by 1 1/2-inch round cake pan combine well the butter
and the brown sugar and press the mixture evenly onto the bottom of
the pan. Cut the pineapple rings in half and arrange them, patted  with
paper towels, and the whole apricots, smooth sides down,  decoratively
on the sugar mixture.  Into a small bowl sift together the flour, the
baking powder, and the  salt. In a bowl with an electric mixer beat the
shortening and the  granulated sugar until the mixture is light and
fluffy and beat in  the egg and the vanilla. Add the flour mixture
alternately with 1/3  cup water, beating after each addition, and stir
in the chopped  pineapple, patted dry, and the chopped apricots. Turn
the batter into  the pan, spreading it evenly, and bake the cake in the
middle of a  preheated 350F. oven for 40 to 45 minutes, or until a
tester comes  out clean. Let the cake cool in the pan for 5 minutes,
invert it onto  a serving plate, and serve it warm or at room
temperature with the  whipped cream.  Gourmet May 1991  Converted by
