Pineapple upside down cake

A request for a family favorite(The person making a request needs
to add  a edible  post:) BEN!

1 box cake mix I like to use pineapple flavored
   I think Duncan Hines makes it but if not you 
   can use a yellow butter cake mix 
1 can sliced pineapple-drained
1 cube butter(I have cut the butter down before but original
   is one cube)
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/2 to 1 cup chopped nuts walnuts, almonds or pecans are all good
mar-chino cherries are optional

directions:  Make cake mix according to package directions, changing 
water for pineapple juice adding water to make enough 
(use the juice from your drained pineapple)

melt butter and pour in 9x13 or two round pans or even a large 
cast iron skillet.

Add brown sugar and nuts.  
Add pineapple slices with cherry in middle of slice.

Pour prepared cake mix over all.  
Bake in oven according to cake mix directions.

Let cool 5 min.  loosen sides of cake place cake platter or 
whatever will fit over it on top of cake and quickly flip it over
be careful hold on and don't burn yourself.

Serve with cool whip, whip cream or ice cream.  YUM YUM

ENGLISH MUFFIN BREAD


OK finally something new. Recently I helped the young women learn how to make bread. We did a white bread
and an english muffin bread. It was really easy and good.
Good especially for toast! Kim


400*-25min.
yields 2 loaves

Ingredients: 6 cups flour
2 pkg. yeast or 1 1/2 Tbls.
1/4 tsp. baking powder

mix 3 cups of the flour and the yeast, and soda set aside

mix following ingredients in a sauce pan, heat and stir just till warm
(really barely)
2 cups milk(good way to use up powdered milk)
1/2 cup water
1 Tbl. sugar
1 tsp. salt
Stir flour mixture and milk mixture(make sure milk isn't to hot) together with a wooden spoon

Stir in remaining 3 cups of flour, you may need to use your hands to mix in last bit of flour.

Divide dough in half. Place in two greased pans that have been sprinkled with cornmeal.(4x8 pan)
Sprinkle cornmeal on tops of loaves.

Let rise until double (about 45 min.)

Bake in 400* oven or until golden brown. Immediatly remove from pans and cool on wire wracks.

Yummy hope you try it. Kim
