These are very, very good. If you do decide to use a cake mix, just remember that if you keep the oven temp at 350 as the recipe calls for, the cake will cook faster than the filling, and you'll end up with a still-liquid center. The remedy is to turn the oven temp down to 325 so they bake a little slower.

A very, very good drink, but only if you make it right. First off, it MUST have Amaretto to make it taste like a real pineapple upside down cake. Usually a heavy splash or so. Second, use very good vanilla vodka. I've tried it with cheap vodka, and you can't taste the vanilla, which really makes or breaks this drink. You might be able to get away with regular vodka and a light splash of vanilla extract, but I really suggest the vanilla vodka.

I baked this in a dark bunt pan and the suggested baking time was WAY too long. Mine was done in under 45 mins. The flavor was good, but it was so dense that had I dropped it on my foot, I would have had to make a trip to the ER. Next time I'll use 2 fewer eggs.
