I bought some raspberries for a different recipe and definitely bought too many. While I love to snack on fresh raspberries, I thought I would try a cake too. Who knew a recipe using Bisquick would be so good? I actually used my homemade master mix for this recipe.
MY NOTES: Very easy to assemble. I’ve made pineapple upside down cake many times and definitely took longer to put the raspberries on that it does to put pineapple on, but the presentation alone was worth it. What I found refreshing about making this out of Bisquick instead of a standard cake recipe was that it wasn’t overly sweet. Just sweet enough to be good and the raspberries add a wonderful little twang that offsets the sweetness. Yum! This is actually a great breakfast cake in my opinion. The recipe suggests serving warm with whip cream (maybe ice cream too), but I had a piece of this cake this morning after being in the refrigerator all night and it was wonderful chilled!
