Re: [CnD] recipe request-pineapple upside cake-easy
I would think around 30 minutes. I always just lightly touch the cake to tell, or can smell it is done, but, stick a toothpick in the center of it and if it comes out clean then it is done. Sorry, the recipe didn't say a time. On the yellow cake mix box it usually tells a time to bake it.

One with a yellow cake mix and the other under that is a scratch cake one. Hope this helps. Smile Katie They follow.. PINEAPPLE UPSIDE DOWN CAKE made with yellow cake mix or from scratch 2/3 cup butter 3/4 cup brown sugar Place the butter and brown sugar in a frying pan and melt until it boils or bubbles. A cast iron pan works well because it's heavy and will be less likely to scorch. 1 can pineapple slices maraschino cherries (enough to fill centers of pineapples) Place pineapples in the butter and sugar mixture. Put cherries in the center of the pineapple. Cut the slices of pineapple into halves and line the sides of the frying pan with them (standing up on edge). Prepare a box of yellow cake mix following the directions on the box to mix the batter (do not bake in a separate pan; follow instructions below). Pour the batter over the pineapple and cherries. Bake at 350°F degrees. When the cake is done, loosen the edges with a butter knife. Remove from heat and allow to sit five minutes, then turn it upside down on a serving dish. Optional: Instead of using a cake mix, you can prepare the batter from scratch using the recipe below, or any recipe for yellow cake. Scratch Cake: 1 cup flour 1 teaspoon baking powder 1/2 teaspoon salt 2 eggs 2/3 cup sugar 1/4 cup milk Combine ingredients and beat 1 minute. Pour batter over pineapples and cherries (same as above). Bake at 350°F and follow same steps as above.

Re: [CnD] recipe request-pineapple upside cake-easy
Open a can of ring pineapple. Sprinkle some brown sugar over the drained pineapple and pour the cake mix over the top. Best to put a piece of parchment paper in cake pan first. - Original Message - From: "Sylvia Perez" To: Sent: Thursday, May 02, 2013 12:04 PM Subject: [CnD] recipe request-pineapple upside cake-easy Hi, I am looking for an easy Pine apple upside down cake recipe-preferably something that uses a yellow cake mix (not that nasty pineapple upside cake mix).
