not only did I substitute 1/3 of pineapple juice but I also did a cup of milk instead of water and I love nuts so on top I added walnuts so that when I flipped it the nuts were all at bottom not mixed in. It was totally delicious1

Yes, the recipe is on the box for Pineapple Upside Down Cake. You will probably need a pair of 1.75 readers, at least, to read it. hahaha! It calls for a box of instant vanilla pudding, which I didn't have, so, I just made it without it. Also, I took the advice of diana1964, and I used 1/3c of the juice from the can in place of the water, I even sprinkled in a lil dab of the cherry juice. I baked it in my 12" cast iron skillet. (my husband had to handle it for me, very heavy) I baked it for my Father-in-Law, he turned 70 yesterday. It's his favorite, He and everyone else complimented me & said it was my best one yet! So, Thank you all, as I took a bit o of advice from ea of you. I'm going to try the vanilla pudding in it next time:)

Why in the world is the pineapple upside down cake recipe no longer on the box? That's ridiculous! *brain clicks into gear* Oh. The old 'takeaway'. Sales/ad gimmick. Take it away, they'll talk about it/no such thing as bad publicity, yadda, yadda, yadda. Hey, folks, we're just playing right into their hands. Duncan Hines: We're loyal - not stupid!
Am offended by this shoddy sales ploy...
You know...with what's going on in our world, would just be nice if we could at the very least still depend on the name Duncan Hines...
That said, I'm headed for the kitchen to make my husband's favorite pineapple upside down cake.
But I'm a little less naive, a little more disillusioned...

I was shocked at how much butter and sugar this recipe calls for to make the topping! I just used 2 tablespoons of butter (sides of pan need to be sprayed) and a half cup of brown sugar. This way the batter isn't swimming and there are less calories!

This is my dad's favorite cake, and I make it every year for his birthday. =) In fact, I'm making it tomorrow! I do wish that the recipe for Pineapple Upside Down Cake were still on the cake mix box. It's much more convenient than having to look it up online every time. Also, it appears that a lot of people replace the water with pineapple juice, so why does the recipe say not to?

I think I missed something. Why is "Double" in the recipe title?
Comment by: audrey.finger (no discussions) on Apr 12, 2012 at 10:42 AM
The cake mix is already seasoned with pineapple.
Comment by: teresa.j.talbot (no discussions) on Jun 4, 2012 at 05:11 PM
I assume it's 'Double' because it's twice as big but you know what happens when you assume? lol
, but no recipe whatsoever!
