"Better than Grandma's" Old-Fashioned Pineapple Upside Down Cake
"A pineapple upside down cake was always the dessert my great-grandmother would present to her special guests. Thankfully, her recipe was written down and passed on to my grandmother, my mom, and now to me. While it can be difficult to improve on many of her recipes, I found that with a few changes, and PHILADELPHIA Cream Cheese this cake was transformed into something even better! This pineapple upside down cake is still cooked in an iron skillet, the old-fashioned way, but now is lighter, moister, and more flavorful than the original. I know Grandma would approve! Enjoy!..."
