My mother still has her Betty Crocker cookbook that was a wedding present in 1959. Lot's of good basic recipes in there. Always looking in thrift stores to find a copy.
Pineapple upside down cake is my second favorite right behind authentic German chocolate cake. It's the first cake I learned to make. I also received a BC cookbook as a wedding present in 1960 and having never cooked anything it was a godsend. If it hadn't been for Betty I think we might have been eating PB&J that year.
My mother and her mother always made the pineapple upside down cake in an iron skillet. Works great!
ReplyDeleteWhen we started watching that, the last thing I expected was to watch all of it, but the guy made a good show out of it.

My mother made the pineapple upside down cake only a few times a year. If she's made it daily there would have none left by each following morning.
ReplyDeleteOne of the very few recipes I am aware of that looked exactly like the picture when done.
