How to Make Pineapple Butterscotch Cake

Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C).
Grease and flour a 13x9 inch baking pan.
Drain one 20-ounce can of pineapple chunks, reserving 1/2 cup of the juice.
In a medium bowl, gently mix 1 1/2 cups of the drained pineapple chunks with 1 cup of butterscotch chips.
In a large bowl, prepare a 15.25 ounce box of yellow cake mix according to package directions, using the reserved 1/2 cup of pineapple juice for all or part of the liquid.

Pour batter into the prepared 13x9 inch pan.
Evenly distribute the pineapple and butterscotch chip mixture over the top of the batter.
Bake for 55-65 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
