This is an old recipe of my grandmother's. There were no baking times, oven temperatures and few measurements in the original recipe!

1/4 cup margarine
1/2 cup sugar
2 cups cherries (sour are best)
cake portion
1 1/2 cups flour
1/2 cup sugar
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 egg
1/2 cup milk
3 tablespoons shortening, melted

To make cake, mix the flour, 1/2 cup sugar, baking powder, salt, egg, milk, and melted shortening. Spread over cherries in pan.
Bake about 30 minutes in a 400 degree oven. IMMEDIATELY after baking, invert and put on a serving plate!
