Carrot plum cake

This recipe is not mine but I've tried it lately and I can just say that it's beautiful.


Butter (for the pan)
Flour (for the pan)
2cups flour
1teaspoon baking powder
½teaspoon salt
½cup (1 stick) butter, at roomtemperature
2cups granulated sugar
4eggs
2teaspoons vanilla extract
7red fleshed plums, each sliced into6 pieces
Cinnamon-sugar made with 2 tablespoons sugar mixed with 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon (for sprinkling)
Confectioners’ sugar (for sprinkling)

2. 
In a bowl, whisk the flour, baking powder, and salt.1. 
Set the oven at 350 degrees. Butter a 9-inch square baking pan. Dust the pan with flour, tapping out the excess.
3. In an electric mixer, cream the butter andgranulated sugar. Beat in the eggs, one at a time,followed by the vanilla.
4. With the mixer set on the lowest speed, blend in the flour mixture. The batter will be thick. Pour it into the dish and smooth the top.
5. Place the plum slices, overlapping slightly, in rows on batter. Sprinkle with cinnamon-sugar.
6. Bake the cake for about 45 to 50 minutes until the cake pulls away from the sides and a toothpick comes out clean when pierced in the center.

7. Let the cake cool for 15 minutes. Sprinkle with confectioners’ sugar. Cut into squares.
