Chocolate Pineapple Upside Down Cake


Chocolate Pineapple Upside Down Cake
So I had all this sliced fresh pineapple after our Hawaiian Luau and decided to make this cake.  The original recipe was found on Cooks.com.  I tasted a bite and it is good. 

3 Tbls Margarine
1 cup brown sugar
1 box of chocolate cake mix
1 large can of sliced pineapple or fresh sliced pineapple
Maraschino Cherries

Follow the cake mix directions and set aside.  In a 13" x 9" pan, melt the margarine in a 350 degree oven.  Sprinkle brown sugar evenly over the melted margarine.  Arrange the pineapples and cherries over the brown sugar layer.  Pour prepared cake mix over the top of the fruit.  Bake about 35 to 40 minutes and use the toothpick test as directed on cake mix box.  When done, set for about 10 minutes and then turn the pan upside down onto a cookie sheet.  If you wait too long to cool, the sugar will harden and be difficult to remove.
