Drain the juice from 1 large can of either Crushed or Sliced Hawaiian Pineapple.

Sift 2 cups flour. Sift again with 2 teaspoons baking powder and 1/2 teaspoon salt.

Cream 1/2 cup butter or substitute, gradually add 1 cup sugar; cream well.

Beat yolks and whites of 2 eggs separately. Add yolks to creamed mixture; mix well, then add flour and 1/2 cup milk alternately, mixing well.

Fold the 2 beaten egg whites and 1 teaspoon vanilla.

Melt 2 tablespoons butter in large frying pan.

Spread 1 cup of brown sugar over pan.

Add pineapple (if Sliced is used, place slices closely together on the sugar; if Crushed, simply pour in the well-drained fruit).

Pour cake batter over fruit.
