:
Ingredients
– 1/2 cup unsalted butter 
– 1 cup packed brown sugar 
– 1 cup pecan halves
– 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour 
– 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder 
– 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
– 1/4 teaspoon salt 
– 1/2 cup granulated sugar 
– 1/2 cup sour cream 
– 1/4 cup milk
– 2 large eggs 
– 1 teaspoon vanilla extract 
Preparation 
1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9-inch round cake pan. 
2. Prepare Topping: In a small saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Stir in the brown sugar until smooth. Pour the mixture into the bottom of the prepared cake pan and spread it evenly. Arrange the pecan halves on top of the brown sugar mixture.
3. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
4. Cream Butter and Sugar: In a large mixing bowl, cream together the granulated sugar and 1/2 cup of butter until light and fluffy.
5. Add Eggs and Flavorings: Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla extract.
6. Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, alternating with the sour cream and milk, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined.
7. Pour Batter: Carefully pour the batter over the pecans and brown sugar mixture in the cake pan. Smooth the top with a spatula.
8. Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
9. Cool and Serve: Let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then run a knife around the edges to loosen it. Invert the cake onto a serving plate and let it cool completely before slicing. Enjoy your Upside-Down Georgia Pecan Cake!
