Serves 12 to 15
Ingredients
White cake recipe or white cake mix
1/3 cup butter
1 cup brown sugar
1 can pineapple rings, drained or peach halves
Maraschino cherries, one for each pineapple, optional
Whipped cream, optional
Instructions
Prepare white cake batter using your favorite recipe or you can use a cake mix.
Melt butter in a metal rectangular cake pan. Add brown sugar and stir.
Place drained pineapple rings or peach halves close together on the sugar. Place a maraschino cherry in each pineapple ring. Cover the fruit with the cake batter.
Bake 350 F for 45 to 55 minutes until done. Let the cake cool in the pan for 15 minutes; loosen sides of cake, invert gently on a cake plate. Serve warm or cold. You may serve with whipped cream.
Variation:
Blueberry Cake: Blueberries are used for the base instead of pineapples. Place 2 cups of fresh (or frozen) blueberries in the bottom of baking pan. Pour about 1/4 cup of white sugar on the berries, you can also add 1/8 cup of flour sprinkled on top. Pour cake batter on top. Bake as above. Serve from the pan, do not invert like the pineapple cake. You may serve with ice cream.
