Caramelized Pineapple Pound Cake
Ingredients
  • cooking spray
  • 1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese
  • 1 cup butter
  • 2 cups white sugar
  • 6 extra large eggs
  • 2 cups self-rising flour
  • 1 teaspoon almond extract
  • 1 teaspoon pineapple extract
  • 3 drops yellow food coloring
  • 2 cups brown sugar
  • 7 pineapple rings
  • 7 maraschino cherries
Instructions
1
Preheat your oven to the optimal temperature for baking, which is 350 degrees Fahrenheit or 175 degrees Celsius.
2
Next, take a 10-inch fluted tube pan and give it a good coating with cooking spray to prevent food from sticking.
3
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cream cheese and butter using an electric mixer until they have reached a smooth consistency.
4
Add granulated sugar to the bowl and mix until it becomes light, airy, and fluffy.
5
Introduce eggs one at a time into the bowl, alternating with flour, ensuring each addition is well incorporated before proceeding to the next.
6
Finally, add a few drops of almond extract, pineapple extract, and food coloring to the mixture for added flavor and color.
7
Before placing the batter in the oven, prepare the tube pan by spreading brown sugar evenly across its bottom.
8
Arrange pineapple rings on top of the brown sugar, followed by a cherry in the center of each ring.
9
Pour the batter over the pineapple and brown sugar mixture, making sure it's evenly distributed.
10
Bake the cake in a preheated oven for approximately 45 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and springs back when gently pressed.
