How to cook deliciously - Microwave Pineapple Upside-Down Cake

1. Stage

Place butter in an 8-inch square glass dish. Microwave at 400W, watching closely, until melted, 30 to 45 seconds.

2. Stage

Stir in brown sugar. Microwave at 800W for 30 seconds, then stir and microwave until it reaches a syrup-like consistency, another 30 seconds. Spread it evenly in the pan.

3. Stage

Place pineapple slices evenly across the bottom of the pan and place a cherry in the center of each one.

4. Stage

Beat cake mix, water, and egg on low speed for 30 seconds, then on medium speed for another 3 to 4 minutes. Pour evenly over the pineapple slices. Cover the pan with waxed paper.

5. Stage

Microwave at 400W until the center is set, about 30 minutes.

6. Stage

Allow cake to stand for 2 minutes, then loosen the edges with a butter knife. Place a plate on top of the baking dish, invert, and let sit for about 3 minutes. Remove the baking dish and scrape any good stuff out and onto the cake if necessary. Cut into 9 squares and serve warm or cold.
