    Pineapple Upside Down Cake

    I had a hankering for a childhood treat recently, Pineapple Upside Down Cake. This cake, smelling of vanilla and warm pineapple, is homey, moist and easy to make. The brown sugar gets caramelized and gooey. It is enjoyed by adults and kids alike.

    Have plenty of cherries on hand, however. The kids will be fighting over them!

    My trusty Betty Crocker Cookbook was the source of this recipe. You probably have all the ingredients in your cabinets now.

    Pineapple Upside Down Cake

    Measure all ingredients into large mixer bowl. Blend 1/2 minute on low speed, scraping bowl constantly. Beat 3 minutes high speed, scraping bowl occasionally. Pour evenly over fruit in pan.

    Bake 35 to 45 minutes or until wooden pick inserted in center comes out clean. Invert onto plate. Leave pan over cake a few minutes. Serve warm and , if desired, with whipped cream.
