I haven't made a Pineapple Upside Down cake in years, and I don't know why because they are soooo good - thanks for reminding me I need to make this again, and your recipe looks perfect. Thanks!

Yes, they do have great recipes, and this one is so easy. I love that you have to make the cake yourself with this recipe, because sometimes it's just nice to make your own and not use a boxed mix!

Good starting point but recipe needed improving. It is not sweet enough, not moist and cake doesn't hold together well. Directions fail to tell you to pour glaze over pineapple/cherries.

To improve, add 6 TBS Sweet N Low (from 8 oz. box), substitue 1/3 cup olive oil or canola oil for softened butter and increase to 2 tsp vanilla flavoring. Optional: add 1/2 cup crushed pineapple to batter.
