Prepare the Topping
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a small bowl, mix the melted butter and brown sugar until well combined.
- Pour the mixture into the bottom of a 9-inch round cake pan, spreading it evenly.
- Arrange the pineapple slices over the sugar mixture and place a cherry in the center of each pineapple slice.
Make the Cake Batter
- In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
- Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition, then stir in the vanilla extract.
- In another bowl, whisk together the flour and baking powder.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, alternating with the milk, starting and ending with the flour mixture.
Bake the Cake
- Pour the cake batter over the arranged pineapple in the cake pan.
- Smooth the top with a spatula.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Cool and Serve
- Remove the cake from the oven and allow it to cool in the pan for 10 minutes.
- Run a knife around the edges to loosen, then invert the cake onto a serving plate.
- Serve warm or at room temperature, and enjoy!

Notes
For added flavor, consider adding a pinch of cinnamon to the cake batter or topping. You can also use fresh pineapple instead of canned.
