I love that cake. I cant make it to save my life....lol

I have made it before years ago. I really don't want to use a boxed cake mix.
I can't find that recipe that I used. I have Googled it but thought someone might have a better recipe than the ones I found.

WDF. So worth the wait.
Check the wilton website and use the butter cake recipe. I always do mine in a cast iron skillet. It makes the pineapple all caramelly and yummy.

Saw Paula Dean do one in muffin pan. She used biscuts (yuck) but i would think you could use yellow cake mix. She put crushed pinapple and cherry in the bottom then the filled and cooked them. Sounded like a good idea for kids snacks.

I usually just buy the pineapple upside down cake box mix (not the regular yellow mix), but instead of using water in the recipe, I use the pineapple juice . It turns out really good.

2. Drain pineapple in small colander, reserving juice in small colander bowl; set aside. Arrange pineapple slices over sugar mixture. Place a cherry half in center of each pineapple slice. Sprinkle nuts over pineapple.
