I made it exactly as the recipe states, and it literally took 5 minutes of my time from start to finish! It was absolutely delicious, and my whole family loved it. It's like the flavors of a pineapple upside down cake with the added bonus of a gooey toasted marshmallow with every bite! YUM! This one's definitely a keeper.

This sounded so good I had to try it, I used a can of chunk pineapple (all I had on hand) added 1/3 cup brown sugar, 1/2 cup chopped pecans stirred together with half the juice...poured into glass baking dish and BAKED at 350 for 15min. then topped with marshmallows and broiled until golden brown. Served over pound cake. This was a big hit at our company party, had so many requests for the recipe I had to print it out and hand out copies!

I had to make this with crushed pineapple since it was all I had. Followed the recipe otherwise. Only problem I had was the marshmallows took about 20 seconds before they started to brown/burn. I would suggest standing by broiler to watch closely. Since it was crushed pineapplies, I stirred the marshmallows into the mixture. The family loved it!
