DOUBLE LAYER PINEAPPLE UPSIDE
DOWN CAKE
 
1 large can sliced pineapples, drained
1 large jar Maraschino Cherries
1 box of Pineapple Supreme Cake Mix
4-5 large eggs
1/3 cup vegetable oil
1-1/3 cups pineapple juice
2 cups firmly packed brown sugar
1 cup butter
1 (8 oz) can vanilla frosting
1 small can crushed pineapples, drained

Topping:

Place pineapple slices at the bottom of two well oiled baking pans. Place whole cherries in the center of each pineapple slice and in between each of the slices. Melt butter in medium sauce pan. Add brown sugar and cook until bubbling.

Pour the brown sugar mix over the pineapples and cherries in each pan, up to two inches deep.

Cake:

Blend cake mix, pineapple juice, eggs, vegetable oil together until smooth. Pour equal amounts of cake mix over brown sugar and pineapple mixture into each pan.

Bake on center rack of oven under 350°F for 30 minutes or until center is done (cake tester inserted in center comes out clean).

Allow cakes to cool for 15 minutes. Remove from pans on to plates and allow to cool for another two hours.

Frosting:

Drain the can of pineapples so that is no liquid is left. Mix the pineapples and frosting together.

Putting it together: Once the cakes have cooled for two hours, place one on top of the others with pineapple side up. Frost the sides of the cake.

Leave the top and center of the cakes unfrosted. Place frosted cakes in the refrigerator until ready to serve.

I made this recipe following the instructions exactly. The cake turned out way too moist. So moist I could not put one layer on top of the other. I used 4 eggs instead of 5. I was very disappointed.

You said you followed the recipe exactly but then stated you used 4 instead of 5 eggs and were disappointed with the results.

Sounds like your cake needed to be baked longer or check your oven temp with a thermometer, it might be off. The recipe says you should bake til center is done so dont take it out of the oven if its still not done even if 30 or 40 minutes goes by it doesn't matter because it has to be fully baked and you are the one to judge
