Baking Time

One of my favorite cakes is German Chocolate Cake topped with coconut pecan frosting. My hubby love this cake too. I'm not good in making this from scratch so the easiest way for me is to buy the ready mixed cake from the box. Hubby and I bought this from Wal Mart before we came back here in my homeland. We bought quite a few different ready mixed cakes in the box but this one is really my favorite. I love the chocolate flavor and the nutty frosting. It was really so yummy.

Pineapple Upside-Down Cake

This pineapple upside down cake is made in an iron skillet. It's quick, easy and so beautiful.

INGREDIENTS

* 1/2 cup butter
* 1 1/2 cups brown sugar
* 1 (20 ounce) can sliced pineapple
* 10 maraschino cherries
* 1 (18.25 ounce) package white cake mix

DIRECTIONS

1. Melt the butter over medium high heat in the iron skillet. Remove from the heat and sprinkle the brown sugar evenly to cover the butter. Next, arrange pineapple rings around the bottom of the pan, one layer deep. Place a maraschino cherry into the center of each pineapple ring. Prepare the cake mix as directed by the manufacturer, substitute some of the pineapple juice for some of the liquid in the directions. Pour the batter over the pineapple layer.
2. Bake as directed by the cake mix directions. Cool for 10 minutes, then carefully turn out onto a plate. Do not let the cake cool too much or it will be stuck to the pan.
