Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish lightly with butter or cooking spray to prevent sticking.
Evenly spread the canned crushed pineapple (with its juices) across the bottom of the baking dish.
Layer the drained pineapple chunks on top of the crushed pineapple in an even layer.
If you'd like a slightly sweeter cake, sprinkle the granulated sugar evenly over the pineapple mixture.
Sprinkle the dry yellow cake mix evenly over the pineapple layers, making sure to cover all the fruit completely.
Cut the unsalted butter into thin slices and evenly distribute the slices across the top of the cake mix. Ensure the entire dish is covered so the butter melts uniformly during baking.
Sprinkle ground cinnamon over the top (if using) for added flavor.
Bake in the preheated oven for 40 to 45 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the fruit is bubbling around the edges.
Remove the cake from the oven and let it cool for at least 15 minutes before serving.
Serve warm on its own or with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for a decadent touch!
