Changing things up today to share a recipe! This did start of as a baking blog, so I guess desserts should make an appearance once in a while!
Did I ever tell you about the first dessert that I baked for my husband? It was a pineapple upside down cake. And he loved it! Surprising how much he loves it, considering he is a chocoholic! And I'm also surprised as to how long it took me too blog about it. I messed around with the recipe a few times, maybe that's why? I finally have enough confidence in this recipe to share it now.

A lot of bakers out there place cherries in the center of pineapple slices, but neither one of us like them, so I have excluded them from the recipe. Also try serving it with vanilla bean ice cream on the side, delicious!
