CAMPFIRE PINEAPPLE UPSIDE DOWN CAKE

CAMPFIRE PINEAPPLE UPSIDE DOWN CAKE
During the Fourth of July holiday, the family went camping.  We decided to try and branch out  from the usual campfire fare we normally prepare.  This cake was a addition to our menu.  It is easy and very good.  All you do to prepare it is place on a large piece of foil cut up cubes of store bought pound cake, pieces of drained chunk pineapple, drained maraschino cherries, pieces of butter, and a sprinkle of brown sugar.  You don't have to be specific about measuring, just do it to taste and be sure to put enough butter on it so it won't be dry or stick.  Wrap everything up and seal the edges of the foil.  While you are eating, place this off to the side of your fire grate so it gets indirect heat for about 15-20 minutes.  When you unwrap it, you will be amazed by how warm and wonderful this simple dessert is.  It definitely rivals any traditional upside down cake.  Even if you are not camping, this is a great and easy dessert that may be prepared on your grill.  Just be careful you don't burn it.  Try it during your next cookout!
