1. Pineapple Upside-Down Cake

Who doesn't love a classic dessert with a tropical twist? The Pineapple Upside-Down Cake is a favorite that remains timeless for a reason. This delightful cake is baked with pineapple slices arranged at the bottom of the pan, which ends up on top when you flip the cake out—hence the "upside-down" part. The caramelized pineapple on top blends perfectly with the soft, buttery cake, making it a showstopper for any occasion.

• 120 gm sugar
• 1 egg
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• 60 ml milk
• 1 tsp Cadbury cocoa powder (optional, for a richer flavor)

Instructions:

1. Start by spreading melted butter and brown sugar evenly across the bottom of your cake pan. Arrange the pineapple slices over the sugar mixture.

2. In a bowl, whisk together the dry ingredients (flour, Cadbury cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt).

3. In another bowl, beat sugar, egg, and vanilla until fluffy. Add milk and gradually mix in the dry ingredients.

4. Pour the batter over the pineapple slices and bake at 350°F for about 35 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.

4. 5.Let the cake cool slightly before flipping it over to reveal your beautiful, caramelized pineapple top!

If you're looking for something refreshing and easy to whip up, this Frozen Pineapple Dessert is perfect. It's light, tropical, and full of that sweet pineapple goodness. The best part? You can make it with just a few ingredients and have a delightful frozen treat ready to go.

Ingredients:

• Cadbury Bournville dark chocolate, melted (optional for drizzling)

Instructions:

1. In a blender, combine frozen pineapple chunks, Greek yogurt, honey, and a little lemon juice.

2. Blend until smooth and creamy. You can either serve it immediately for a soft-serve consistency or freeze it for an hour for a firmer texture.

3. Grilled Pineapple with Chocolate Spread and Nuts

Grilled pineapple is a fantastic dessert option that brings out the natural sweetness of the fruit. The grilling process caramelizes the sugar in the pineapple, creating a smoky, sweet flavor that pairs perfectly with a generous spread of Cadbury chocolate and a sprinkle of nuts.

How to Make It:

Ingredients:

• About 6 to 8 pineapple slices (fresh)
• 60 ml melted Cadbury chocolate
• Chopped nuts (almonds, hazelnuts, or pecans work well)
• 1 tsp cinnamon (optional)

Instructions:

1. Preheat your grill and place the pineapple slices directly on the grill grates.

2. Cook for about 2-3 minutes on each side until you get grill marks, and the pineapple softens slightly.

3. Once grilled, remove the pineapple slices and drizzle them with melted Cadbury chocolate over the top.

4. For an extra crunch, sprinkle chopped nuts and a dash of cinnamon for warmth.

Grilled pineapple is the ultimate crowd-pleaser—simple to make, but the combination of textures and flavors will leave everyone wanting more!
