Pineapple-Upside-Down Cake
"I love the classic pineapple upside cake baked in a cast iron skillet. However, when I am asked to make this cake for others, they always want it made with chunks of pineapple instead of the rings, and made in a 13x9 inch pan. They consider it made this way is more fork-pineapple friendly. You can arrange or design the chunks of pineapple and cherries anyway you desire. I might also add if you are not into making cakes from scratch you can use a boxed yellow cake mix and follow the manufactures directions and carry on from there."
