Directions:
To a 9-inch mold, add a melted butter bar and a cup of brown sugar. Mix it really well, then add the 7 slices of pineapple. In between the pineapples, place the cherries. Once the decoration is completed, prepare the sweet mixture.
Sift the cup and a half of flour, place in a bowl, add the butter bar, and smoothly beat well. Then add the sugar, followed by the two beaten eggs. Next, add the can of the pineapple juice left over from the pineapple slices. Mix and gradually add the flour. While mixing, add the two teaspoons of baking powder, then the teaspoon of vanilla and the pinch of salt. Once it is mixed well and ready, add it to 9- inch mold with a spatula and even it out.
