Directions
1.
Heat oven to 325 degrees F (300 degrees F for dark or nonstick pan). In 13x9-inch pan, melt butter in oven. Sprinkle brown sugar evenly over butter. Place maraschino cherry in center of peach half; place cut side down on brown sugar (cherries will be on bottom). Spoon pineapple around peaches.
2.
Add enough water to reserved pineapple juice to measure 1 1/4 cups. In large bowl, beat cake mix, juice mixture, oil and eggs with electric mixer on low speed 30 seconds. Beat on medium speed 2 minutes, scraping bowl occasionally. Pour batter over peaches and pineapple.
3.
Bake 1 hour 10 minutes to 1 hour 15 minutes or until toothpick inserted in center of cake comes out clean and top is very dark golden brown. Immediately run knife around side of pan to loosen cake. Place heatproof serving plate upside down on pan; turn pan and plate over. Leave pan over cake 1 minute so topping can drizzle over cake. Cool 30 minutes. Serve warm or cool.

High Altitude (3500-6500 ft): Heat oven to 350 degrees F (325 degrees F for dark or nonstick).
