Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
-----CAKE-----
1 1/2 c Butter (3 sticks), divided
6 lg Eggs, separated
1 1/2 t Baking soda
1 1/2 c Buttermilk, with
-pineapple juice
1 t Vanilla extract (or more)
1/2 t Salt
1 c Sugar, granulated
2 1/2 c Confectioner's sugar (4x)
2 1/2 c Flour
-----TOPPINGS-----
Pineapple rings
Maraschino cherries
Pecan halves
-----SYRUP-----
2 c Light brown sugar (1 box)
1/2 c Butter
2/3 c Water
2 T Karo

Grease 3 cast-iron skillets. Drain pineapple rings, reserving juice. Add
all but 1 tablespoon of the juice to the buttermilk to make 1 1/2 cups
fluid (equal parts, if possible).

Separate eggs; place all the whites in a large bowl, place 3 yolks in one
small container, and the other 3 in another. Prepare 3 8-inch cake pans
with brown-paper rounds (for bottoms) greased with shortening. Preheat
oven to 350 degrees F.

Soften 1/2 C butter in a large bowl; add confectioner's sugar and beat
until thoroughly mixed. Add 3 egg yolks, one after another, and continue
beating. Add vanilla and mix till thoroughly blended, scraping sides with
spatula if necessary.

Measure flour into a small bowl and stir in baking soda. Add to
butter/sugar mixture alternately with buttermilk in 4 steps, beginning and
ending with the flour.

Sprinkle about 1/2 t salt on egg whites. Beat till stiff, but not dry.
Fold egg whites into batter.

TOPPING: Melt butter in large skillet over medium heat; add 1 T of
pineapple juice and the sugar. Add water and Karo and cook at a high,
rolling boil for about 3 minutes. Pour equally into prepared cast-iron
skillets (about 1/2 to 3/4-inch thick). Place pineapple rings in bottom of
each skillet, and in the centers, place a cherry. (Can add pecan halves,
too.) Divide batter between pans and bake at 350 degrees F. about 30-35
minutes, until done.
