Cómo preparar Aunt Miggies Pear Cake
- Peel, core, and slice 4-5 medium ripe pears. In a large bowl, combine the pears with 1 ½ cups granulated sugar and ½ cup vegetable oil. Let stand for 1 hour.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 cups all-purpose flour, 2 teaspoons baking powder, 1 teaspoon baking soda, ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon, ¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg, and a pinch of salt.
- Gently fold the dry ingredients into the pear mixture. Add 2 large eggs, one at a time, mixing until just combined. The batter will be thin; do not overmix.
- Pour the batter into a greased and floured 10-inch tube pan.
- Bake for 75 minutes at 325°F (160°C), or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes before inverting it onto a wire rack to cool completely.
- While the cake cools, prepare the cream cheese icing.
- In a mixing bowl, cream together ½ cup (1 stick) softened unsalted butter, 8 ounces of softened cream cheese, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, and 1 pound powdered sugar until smooth. Add a tablespoon of milk at a time if needed to reach desired consistency.
- Once the cake is completely cool, frost with the cream cheese icing and garnish with chopped pecans or walnuts (optional).
