A Great Father's Day Treat!

I made this cake as a surprise for my dad this father's day, pineapple upside down cake is a favorite for him. I made it in an 8x8" pan without mango and with the macadamias on only half- some picky eaters in my family. At first, it looked like the sauce had permeated the entire cake (which scared me) but after a taste test, a la mode, shared with my dad of course, I was pleased to find it not at all soggy, and a delicious success at that!

I love this recipe and am looking forward to serving it to guests....but I am really having trouble with the right size ramekin-I used 4" diameter and they overflowed, so now I have 10 oz ramekins @ 4 " to try...did anyone use ramekins?




Very good

Lots of dirty dishes but worth it! This is a fabulous treat. I like it with vanilla ice cream.

I wouldn't say this is an "Easy" recipe. The prep time is much longer than 20 minutes, when you consider the time needed to prep the mango and pineapple. It took me at least 30 minutes and probably even a bit longer. The result was worth the work, though! The cake was declicious! The combination of the mango, pineapple, and the macadamia nuts was so tasty and the cake was nice and light. My husband said this was his new favorite cake and the best cake he'd ever had!




lovely

This is a wonderful twist to an old family favorite. It was easy to prepare and the fresh pineapple really makes this cake sing.... So moist and wonderful.
