Description

My semi-homemade upside-down cake features a flavorful vanilla cake mix infused with pineapple juice, poured over sweet, caramelized pineapple slices studded with maraschino cherries. The cake is baked upside down and flipped after baking!


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 box Duncan Hines Yellow Cake Mix
  • 1 1/3 cup Pineapple Juice
  • 1/3 cup Vegetable Oil
  • 3 large Eggs
  • 1 Tablespoon Vanilla
  • 2/3 cup butter
  • 1 2/3 cup brown sugar
  • 1 (20 oz) can Sliced Pineapple
  • Maraschino Cherries


Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F.
  2. In a small sauce pan melt the butter.
  3. Pour the butter into into a 9 x 13 pan and sprinkle the brown sugar over the melted butter.
  4. Arrange the pineapple slices in the pan in nice little neat rows. Add 1 cherry in the middle of each pineapple slice.
  5. In a mixer bowl, mix cake mix, pineapple juice, oil, eggs and vanilla on medium speed for about 2 minutes.
  6. Pour the cake batter into the pan over the pineapple.
  7. Bake for 30-45 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.
  8. Let cook in the pan for 5 minutes. Invert onto your serving dish.
