Comment préparer Vicki's Pineapple Upside Down Dream Cake

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
Drain one 20-ounce can of pineapple slices, reserving 2 tablespoons of the juice.
In a 13x9 inch baking pan, combine 1 cup (2 sticks) of unsalted butter and 1 cup packed light brown sugar. Melt over low heat, stirring until smooth.
Arrange the pineapple slices in the pan, cut-side up. Place a maraschino cherry half in the center of each pineapple slice.
Sprinkle the reserved pineapple juice and 1/2 cup chopped pecans or walnuts evenly over the pineapple.
In a large bowl, combine one 15.25-ounce box of white or yellow cake mix, 1 (3 ounce) package Dream Whip, 4 large eggs, and 1 cup water. Beat with an electric mixer on medium speed for 4 minutes, until well combined.
Carefully pour the cake batter over the pineapple mixture in the prepared pan.
Bake for 50-55 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean. The top should also spring back when lightly pressed.
Let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Then, invert onto a serving plate and let it stand for another minute before removing the pan.
