  • 2 20 oz cans crushed pineapple undrained
  • ½ cup brown sugar
  • 1 15.25 oz box yellow cake mix
  • 1 ½ sticks butter thinly sliced

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350° f, and grease a 13 x 9 inch baking dish with cooking spray
  • Pour both cans of crushed pineapple into baking dish, and spread evenly
  • Add brown sugar over pineapple
  • Spread dry cake mix evenly over pineapple layer
  • Place pats of butter in even rows on top of cake mix

  • Allow to cool slightly and rest for 10 to 15 minutes before serving

Notes

Bake time may vary with individual ovens and may take from 45 minutes to 1 hour.
Make cake mix layer as even as possible. If some places appear dry during baking, you can add more butter or press cake mix into pineapple layer to moisten.
