  • 1 12-cup muffin tin or 12 cupcake-sized ramekins

Ingredients
  

  • 1 can crushed pineapple juice and all, don’t get shy now

Diva's Sweet Suggestions

Pineapple Upside Down:

Pop a maraschino cherry right in the middle of each cake before baking for a retro vibe. It’s like a pineapple upside-down cake, but cuter.

Pineapple Rum:

Feeling fancy? Stir a splash of rum into your pineapple mix for a tropical cocktail in cake form. (Pinky up while eating is optional.)

Tropical Mix:

Add some mango chunks in with the pineapple. You’ll feel like you’re in a fruit salad parade.

Presentation Suggestions:

– Serve with a scoop of vanilla or coconut ice cream. Because why not double down on the tropical theme?

– Garnish with a slice of fresh pineapple and a cherry. Instant island vibes, even in your kitchen.

– For a little extra flair, dust with powdered sugar and sprinkle more shredded coconut on top. It’s like a snowstorm in paradise! ❄️🌺
