• 1 small jar maraschino cherries
• tooth picks

Instructions

1. Preheat the oven as directed on the ham package and follow the instructions for baking the ham.
2. Decoratively arrange the pineapple slices on top of the ham, securing them with toothpicks. Place a cherry in the center of each pineapple ring and secure with a toothpick.
3. In a small pot, melt the butter and stir in the brown sugar, honey and a couple tablespoons of the reserved pineapple juice. Keep stirring just until the mixture begins to thicken and remove from heat. Slowly drizzle the glaze over the pineapples, cherries and ham and cover with foil or slide in roasting bag.
