Good but for easier version just line a pan with brown sugar Splenda, pineapple rings with cherries, and butter flavored oil spray, then mix sugar reduced yellow cake mix, diet cherry soda, and egg white and pour on top. Cook as directed on package. lots easier and much less fat and calories... - 7/10/08

I made this recipe. I did two versions of it because I had a large group coming over. In one I baked it with oil, but then didn't have enough for the second. I substituted applesauce for oil in the second one. The guests couldn't tell the difference. I will definately make it again--without oil!!!!! - 7/8/08

Even easier than easier, take yellow cake mix, a 20oz can of crushed pineapple and mix. Line the pan w/ brown sugar Splenda, pineapple rings w/cherries and butter flavored cooking spray. Cook as directed on package. Easy, less fat and an extra burst of good for you with the pineapple in the mix! - 2/6/12
