DIY Pineapple Upside-Down Cupcakes

What you will need:

  • 1 can (20 oz) sliced pineapple, drained, juice reserved
  • 1 box Betty Crocker™ SuperMoist™ yellow cake mix
  • 1/2 cup vegetable oil
  • 3 eggs
  • 1/3 cup butter, melted
  • 2/3 cup packed brown sugar
  • 12 maraschino cherries, cut in half
  • cooking spray

Directions:

  1. Move an oven rack into the middle of the oven. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  2. Spray muffin cups with cooking spray
  3. In a small bowl, stir together melted butter and brown sugar. Spoon 1-1/2 teaspoons into each muffin cup.
  4. Press a maraschino cherry into the center of the brown sugar in each muffin cup.
  5. Spoon a heaping tablespoon of crushed pineapple over the cherry and compact it with the back of a spoon into an even layer.
  6. Beat cake mix, eggs, pineapple juice, and vegetable oil in a large bowl with electric mixer on low speed until moistened, about 30 seconds. Turn mixer speed to medium and mix for 2 minutes.
