Description

A nostalgic dessert featuring caramelized edges and juicy pineapple rings, perfect for any occasion.


Ingredients

  • 1 Box Yellow Cake Mix (plus ingredients listed on the package: usually Eggs + Oil)
  • 1 Can Pineapple Rings (reserve juice)
  • 1 Jar Maraschino Cherries
  • 1 Stick Butter
  • 1/2 Cup Brown Sugar


Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Melt 1 stick of butter with 1/2 cup of brown sugar over low heat until smooth and bubbly. Pour this mixture into a greased Bundt pan.
  3. Drain the pineapple rings, reserving the juice in a measuring cup. Slice the rings in half.
  4. Arrange the pineapple halves in a circular pattern around the Bundt pan, placing a cherry between each slice.
  5. Combine the yellow cake mix, eggs, oil, and the reserved pineapple juice in a mixing bowl. If you don’t have enough juice, add water until you reach the required liquid amount.
  6. Pour the cake batter slowly over the arranged pineapples.
  7. Bake for 38-45 minutes or until golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the cake comes out clean.
  8. Allow the cake to cool for approximately 10 minutes before inverting onto a cake platter. Let it cool completely, slice, and enjoy!

Notes

Serve warm with vanilla ice cream or drizzle with caramel sauce. Can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days or frozen for three months.
