– 1 Cup.Of granulated sugar.

– 1 Tsp.Of vanilla extract.
– 1/2 Cup.Of pineapple juice.
PREPARATION:
1st Step:
Make sure your oven is preheated to 350F (175C) and that you have a 9-inch round cake pan ready.
2nd Step:
Over low heat, melt one-fourth of a cup of butter that has not been salted in a small pot. Put in the brown sugar, and blend it together well. Evenly distribute this batter onto the bottom of the prepared cake pan.
3rd Step:
Put the brown sugar mixture into a cake pan and arrange the pineapple rings on top. If you choose, you may add a maraschino cherry to the center of each pineapple slice.
4th Step:
Mix the baking powder, salt, and all-purpose flour together in a medium basin using a whisk. Put aside for the time being.
5th Step:
In a separate large bowl, mix together the softened unsalted butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy. Then add the eggs one at a time and well mixed in between each addition. Add the vanilla essence and mix well.
6th Step:
Stir the dry ingredients into the wet, alternating with the pineapple juice. Always start and finish with the flour mixture, and always whisk until just incorporated after adding a new ingredient. Take care to avoid over-blending.
7th Step:
Spread the cake batter evenly over the pineapple rings in the pan. To test doneness, stick a toothpick into the middle and remove it cleanly after 40 to 45 minutes in a preheated oven.
8th Step:
After 5 minutes, take the cake out of the oven and allow it cool in the pan. Then, set a serving plate over the pan and flip the whole thing upside down to turn the cake out. Lift the pan carefully to expose the pineapple topping.
9th Step:
Cool the cake thoroughly before cutting it. Add some vanilla ice cream or whipped cream on top if you want.
