Recipe

3 Tablespoons melted butter 3 Tablespoons brown sugar
7 Pineapple rings
7 Maraschino cherries
1 Box yellow cake mix prepared according to directions

Generously grease the sides of a 10 inch Dutch oven. Pour melted butter into oven. Distribute evenly.

Arrange pineapple rings in the bottom of the Dutch oven
Place a maraschino cherry in the center of each pineapple ring. Evenly sprinkle brown sugar on top of the fruit. Slowly pour cake batter over the top of the fruit. Distribute evenly.

Bake with 7 coals beneath and 14 coals on top. Every 15 minutes rotate the pot and lid 90 degrees in opposite directions.

Cake is done when it is pulling away from the sides of the pot and a inserted toothpick comes out clean. Remove oven from the coals and allow to cool 10 minutes. Run a soft spatula around between the cake and the sides of the Dutch oven. Place a plate over the top of the pot. Wearing thick gloves, invert the Dutch and plate in one swift motion. Allow the oven to drop the last inch or so when you set it down on the table. This will help the cake fall away from the bottom of the oven. Carefully lift the pot off the cake.
