Serves: 12 slices
Ingredients
  • ⅓ cup salted butter, room temp
  • 1 cup brown sugar (lightly packed)
  • 1 can of pineapple slices, well drained
  • 1 recipe of Brown Sugar Cupcake batter
Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
  2. Butter a 9" round or 8" square baking pan very well.
  3. Trace the bottom of the pan on a piece of parchment. Cut out and place in bottom of pan - butter the parchment.
  4. In a small bowl beat the butter and brown sugar until fluffy. Using an off-set spatula spread the brown sugar mixture evenly on the bottom of the pan.
  5. Place the pineapple slices in a single layer on the brown sugar mixture.
  6. Spread the cake batter on top. Place the cake pan on a baking sheet as the brown sugar mixture may bubble over while baking (saves a oven clean-up)
  7. Bake 30-35 minutes until golden brown and the top springs back.
  8. Cool in pan on a cooling rack at least 20 minutes.Run a knife around the outside of the cake before inverting onto serving plate. Peel the parchment off slowly so that the caramel mixture releases evenly.
