Time 50m

Yield 9

Number Of Ingredients 7

4 tablespoons unsalted butter
¼ cup brown sugar
1 (8 ounce) can sliced pineapple, drained
maraschino cherries as needed
1 (9 ounce) package yellow cake mix (such as Jiffy® Golden Yellow cake mix)
¼ cup water
1 large egg

Steps:

  • Place butter in an 8-inch square glass dish. Microwave at 400W, watching closely, until melted, 30 to 45 seconds.
  • Stir in brown sugar. Microwave at 800W for 30 seconds, then stir and microwave until it reaches a syrup-like consistency, another 30 seconds. Spread it evenly in the pan.
  • Place pineapple slices evenly across the bottom of the pan and place a cherry in the center of each one.
  • Beat cake mix, water, and egg on low speed for 30 seconds, then on medium speed for another 3 to 4 minutes. Pour evenly over the pineapple slices. Cover the pan with waxed paper.
  • Microwave at 400W until the center is set, about 30 minutes.
  • Allow cake to stand for 2 minutes, then loosen the edges with a butter knife. Place a plate on top of the baking dish, invert, and let sit for about 3 minutes. Remove the baking dish and scrape any good stuff out and onto the cake if necessary. Cut into 9 squares and serve warm or cold.
