Hi Linda, I was going to PM you but thought others may want to share this as well. You posted the yummiest looking pineapple upside down cakes made in the brownie pan. I tried to copy the recipe that you modified but facebook cuts it off at the "see more" tab. It is times like these that technology stumps me! Thank you in advance!
 
I can't take credit (other than theft-rights :D) this recipe and photo! are from another Director (Desiree Rose in case you know her).

Individual Pineapple Upside-Down Cakes (Based on The Pampered Chef’s recipe in Delightful Desserts, p. 58)
Ingredients:
½ cup of butter
1 cup of packed brown sugar
12 maraschino cherries, halved
One 20-oz. can of pineapple rings with juice
½ cup of walnuts, coarsely chopped
3 eggs
One box of yellow cake mix (18.25 oz. size)
1/3 cup oil

1) Preheat oven to 325 F. Open a can of pineapple rings and drain liquid into 2-Cup Easy Read Measuring Cup using Can Strainer. Add enough water to pineapple liquid to make 1 1/3 cups of liquid. Set aside. Cut pineapple rings into quarters.
2) In Small Batter Bowl, melt butter. Mix in brown sugar. Using Small Stainless Scoop, portion a scant scoop of sugar mixture into each well of two Brownie Pans. Spread to cover bottoms of wells with Skinny Scraper.
3) Add two pieces of the quartered pineapple rings to each well of Brownie Pan. Place one maraschino cherry half in the center of each well. Sprinkle chopped nuts evenly over pineapple slices in pans
4) Combine cake mix, pineapple liquid, eggs, and oil in 4-Qt. Stainless Mixing Bowl. Whisk until well blended. Using Large Stainless Scoop, portion batter into wells of Brownie Pan, filling each well 2/3rds full.
5) Bake cakes for 20-22 minutes until toothpick inserted in center of cakes comes out clean. Cool in pan for 3 minutes, then invert onto parchment-lined Stackable Cooling Rack. Serve warm with whipped topping, if desired. Makes 24 individual cakes. NOTE: Recipe may be halved to fill just one Brownie Pan and make 12 servings. Use a small cake mix (like Jiffy brand) or 1 2/3 cups of dry cake mix, 2 eggs, and 2/3 cup of pineapple liquid, plus 2 T. oil. Use half the butter, sugar, pineapple and cherries.

OMG these were so good, thanks Linda!
 
Thinking its about time to start a recipe file for the brownie pan like we did for the DCB and MFP--I will start one here if everyone wants to add to it.
 
Um..Ok how do I upload a new file? Duh, should have tried it first...

In the monthly magazine on the news stands is Family Circle. They have lots of "cake and brownie" type recipes in them. They have a brownie pan that they recommend for $17.95 but I have not checked it out or compared it to ours. I was not excited at first because I do not like the crusts of the brownie, but seeing what other ideas everyone has, this product has come to life!

I am definitately going to use the picture of this at my parties this weekend! There has already been a request to see the pan now I will be armed with ideas!
 
Brownie recipe bookletI got this from my Director & just added in the recipe Linda posted....which by the way I CAN'T wait to try :D
