Sprinkle the brown sugar over the butter
Arrange pineapple chunks or slices. I cut my slices about ¼ inch thick.
Cream room temp butter and sugar till light and fluffy.
Add the eggs one by one, beat for about a minute after each addition.
Pour in the extract you are using and beat for another 30 seconds.
Alternately mix in your dry ingredients and milk in 2-3 batches just until the ingredients are used up and a cohesive batter is formed.
Bake for 40-45 minutes depending or until a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean.
Cool for 10-15 minutes before inverting on to your serving plate.
Absolutely divine warm.
