    Place the butter in a 20 x 20 x 5 cm square baking dish and place it over low heat until the butter melts. Once melted, sprinkle the brown sugar evenly over the top. Arrange the pineapple rings on top of the sugar in a single layer, making three rows. Cut in half. maraschino cherries and place one half, cut side up, in the center of each pineapple ring. Set the mold aside.
  2. Sift the flour, add the baking powder and salt, and then sift again. Using an electric mixer, combine the margarine, granulated sugar, egg, and vanilla. Combine the milk in a blender, gradually adding the flour, baking powder, and salt. Mix well after each addition of flour to ensure the ingredients are combined.
