PEACHES & PEARS UPSIDE-DOWN GINGERBREAD
This is my own version of another recipe I recently posted. I had a box of gingerbread mix in the pantry and I also had one can of peaches and one can of pears. So I whipped this up and it is awesome, even if it is cheating a little bit!

Steps:
- Melt the butter in the microwave and pour it into a 9" square baking pan. Pour brown sugar over the melted butter to absorb the butter and pat it down into an even layer.
- Drain the peaches and pears and lay the peach halves cut side up on top of the brown sugar. Arrange the pear slices in between peach halves.
- Follow the directions on the gingerbread mix to make the batter, and pour the batter over the peaches and pears.
- Follow the directions on the box for oven temperature and length of time to bake. Check for doneness by sticking a knife halfway into the center. If it comes back with batter on it, return the cake to the oven for another 5 or 10 minutes and then test it again.
- When the knife comes out clean, remove the cake and let it cool for a few minutes.
- To serve, cut a square out of the pan, and spoon the juices from the bottom of the pan over the cake. Top with whipped cream. Best served hot from the oven.

I prefer to bake from scratch, but this Christmasy cake mix recipe is a favorite. For a change of pace, use apples and walnuts in place of the pears and pecans. -Trisha Kruse, Eagle, Idaho
