A super easy, fun upside down cake. Pineapple Upside Down is my dad's favorite cake, and I like the twist of a layer.
Ingredients
- 1 (10 ounce) jar maraschino cherries, drained shopping list
- 1/4 cup butter shopping list
- 1/2 cup packed brown sugar shopping list
- 1/2 cup flaked coconut shopping list
- 1 (8 ounce) can sliced pineapple, drained with juice reserved shopping list
- 1 (8 ounce) can crushed pineapple, drained with juice reserved shopping list
- 1 (18.25 ounce) package yellow cake mix shopping list
How to make it
- DIRECTIONS
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Butter two 9 inch round cake pans. Sprinkle the bottom of each pan with 1/4 cup (or more-for more good gooey stuff) of brown sugar.
- In one of the pans, sprinkle coconut over the brown sugar. Lay pineapple rings in a single layer on top of coconut. Place a cherry in the center of each ring. In the other pan, spread the drained crushed pineapple.
- Mix the cake as directed on package, but substitute reserved pineapple juice in place of water. Divide batter between the 2 pans.
- Remember which pan has the pineapple rings in it.
- Bake for 35 minutes in the preheated oven, or until a toothpick inserted into cake comes out clean. Cool in pans for 20 minutes.
- While the bottoms of the cake pans are still warm to the touch, invert the layer with the crushed pineapple out onto a serving dish, then gently invert the layer with the pineapple rings on top of it.
