1/2 cup butter |
2 eggs |

1/2 teaspoon almond flavoring |
2 cups white flour |
1 tablespoon baking powder |
1/2 teaspoon salt |

1. Melt butter and combine with sugar and corn syrup in the bottom of 2 round cake pans.
2. Arrange fresh or canned pears pieces on top. (Peel and core, if fresh).
3. Preheat oven to 350°F.
4. Beat butter with eggs and wet ingredients in a large measuring cup or small bowl.
5. In a larger bowl, mix dry ingredients, then add butter mixture to it, combining well.
