GETTING READY

  • 1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.

MAKING

  • 2. For the wet ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, add and combine together the butter, condensed milk, milk and vanilla extract using an electric mixer. Make sure the mixture is smooth.
  • 3. For the dry ingredients: In a medium sized bowl, add and combine together the plain flour, baking soda and baking powder using a spoon.
  • 4. Take the bowl of dry ingredients and slowly add it into the wet ingredients bowl about 1/2 cup measurement at a time. First mix it well with the electric mixer and beat it at a slow speed until well combined. Repeat this step, until all the dry ingredients have been folded into the wet ingredients.
  • 5. Take a 9 inch spring form pan and coat the bottom with 2 tablespoon of melted butter and sprinkle it some dry flour.
  • 6. Once done, take the pineapple slices and place them inside the spring form pan (adjusting the slices as required), take 3-4 cherries and place them inside the holes of the pineapple slices.
  • 7. Once done, take the cake batter and pour it evenly onto the pineapple slices making sure they are completely covered.
  • 8. Bake this in the preheated oven at 350 degrees F for 25 – 30 minutes or until a tooth pick inserted in the center of the cake comes out clean.
  • 9. After 30 minutes, remove the cake from the oven and let it sit for about 10 minutes before releasing the spring pan.
  • 10. After 10 minutes, release the spring pan and place the cake upside down onto a cooling rack to cool completely before slicing it.

SERVING

  • 11. Serve a slice of this upside down pineapple cake on a dessert plate with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
