Swap out pineapple for berries in this upside down cake. Since it has a little tang, we used Brummel & Brown™ Organic Buttery Spread" to beat with the sugar. —Food52

Right in the middle of making this and used the 2tbl of spread with the brown sugar. Nothing left to cream in the sugar. Now what?

How much remaining "spread" is there supposed to be? And when do vanilla and lemon get mixed in??

How much yogurt spread (butter?) is supposed to be in the actual cake?
