This is a really nice cake, the brown sugar gives the pineapple a caramel flavour and makes it lovely and moist. I used a square cake tin and it needed to cook about 15 mins longer than the time mentioned in the instructions. Thanks for posting.

Very tasty dessert! I was unsure how to brown the pineapple, as I have never heard or done that before, but I fried it with brown sugar and butter for about 5 minutes. It goes really well with your Sloppy Joe recipe, which we had for dinner tonight, as well! Thank you for posting this!

I work in a group home and made this cake for an awards dinner per my clients request. They loved it. I mixed the sugar and butter and poured it over pineapple rings instead of crushed pineapple. It turned out great. Now in my cook book.

I made this for dessert and while eating it I asked my DH how it was. He said it was, "pretty good". I asked him how many stars and he said 14 so I said on a scale of 1 to 5 and he said, "give it a 5, it's good!" I agree so I guess that rates you a 5! Thanks for the recipe!
