Blueberry-Lemon Upside Down Cake

You all must be sick of this combination by now. I just love it so much! The sweetness of the berries & tartness of the lemon. Oh man I can't get enough! I've tried making Pineapple upside down cakes and haev failed time and time again. So this is my first upside down cake that has come out edible and not entirely deformed lol. I did the Paula Dean prayer on this one! She is onto something w/that let me tell you
I realized while the cake was in the oven, that I left the stick of butter in the microwave. Yes I cheat and "help" it come to room temperature. I know that's bad but I don't have all the patience in the world.  So the whole time I was worrying if this cake would not only come out pretty but taste good?
MUCH to my surprise it did! Still not perfect but I'm getting better.

1 cup Brown Sugar
1/4 cup butter
12 ounces blueberries

1/3 cup fresh lemon juice
2 teaspoons lemon zest
1 cup sugar
1 stick butter (you can omit this, I forgot to add it & I think it came out great)
2 eggs
1 1/2 cups all purpose flour
1 teaspoon Double Acting Baking Powder
1 teaspoon Almond Extract
1/2 cup milk ( I used 1%)

Preheat oven to 350
In a saucepan combine brown sugar and butter. Cook stirring until butter is melted and they are combined. In the bottom of a spring form pan add blueberries and pour sugar/butter mix over top. With a rubber spatual stir together.
In a medium bowl, cream together the sugar and butter. Beat in the eggs, one at a time, then stir in the almond extract, lemon juice and lemon zest.  Combine flour and baking powder, add to the creamed mixture and mix well. Finally stir in the milk until batter is smooth. Pour batter over blueberries. Bake for 30 to 45 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean. Let cool for about 2  minutes. Then grab your cake dish or platter, lay it over top the cake pan, holding the cake pan and dish together, pray and flip! Let cool completely and serve.
Note* Cake is done when it springs back to the touch.
My tummy was having a party after this dessert! I hope you enjoy it
