Directions

1 Heat oven to 350°F. In 13x9-inch (3-quart) glass baking dish, melt butter in oven. Sprinkle brown sugar evenly over butter. Arrange pineapple slices in 4 rows by 3 rows. Place 1 cherry in center of each pineapple slice.
2 In large bowl, beat cake mix, reserved 1 cup pineapple juice, the oil and eggs with electric mixer on low speed 30 seconds. Beat on medium speed 2 minutes, scraping bowl occasionally. Pour batter over pineapple slices.
3 Bake 28 to 33 minutes or until golden brown and cake springs back when lightly touched in center. Run knife around edges of baking dish to loosen cake. Cool 5 minutes.
4 Place heatproof serving plate upside down on baking dish; turn plate and dish over. Remove dish. Brush or drizzle rum over cake. Cut into 4 rows by 3 rows, so each serving has a slice of pineapple on top. Serve warm.

This recipe was fabulous. I made it in a bundt cake pan and baked for about 45 minutes. I used white rum rather than pineapple rum as that was what I had on hand and because it was in the round bundt pan, I only used 6 pineapple slices and 6 cherries, with pecan halves above and below the fruit. It was very moist and looked like something you'd see in a specialty cake shop. The bundt cake made a beautiful presentation - I wish I could share a picture!
