Pineapple Upside Down Trifle


Pineapple Upside Down Trifle

Ingredients:

-1 Box Duncan Hines Yellow Butter Cake Mix
-1 Large Container of Cool Whip
-2 Small Jars or 1 Large Jar of Maraschino Cherries
-2 Large Cans of Pineapple Chunks (in Pineapple Juice - Not Syrup)
-1 Stick of Butter
-1/2 Cup of Light Brown Sugar

Directions:

-Bake cake according to package directions
-When cake is done, let cool then slice into squares (I baked mine in a glass 9x13 baking dish)
-In a sauce pan, combine butter and and brown sugar over medium to high heat (keep stirring to prevent sticking).
-When the butter/sugar mixture becomes thick, it's finished. Turn down to simmer or low and stir occasionally while you're assembling the trifle.
-Layer ingredients in the following fashion:
**Cake (break pieces up into chunks and create a layer on the bottom of the trifle dish
**Pineapple
**Maraschino cherries (not a solid layer, just spread them around)
**Half or a third of the brown sugar mixture

Repeat to top. Top with Cool Whip and Cherries. :)

Enjoy!!!
